Don't hold so close when I am near
'Cause we both know once I'm far away
You'll just brush me off 'til another day
And I wish I said it once so I could say it again
People are more than what you get from them
Don't know if you know,
But I don't think so
I don't wanna cry
Tears that have already dried
And I'm hoping you are not lying
When you say I am a light in your life
So are you
going through something I never knew?
Please just tell me
it can't be you that has burned me through and through
These days I try not to stare so much at the sun
'Cause if you look with too much hope I find that
You are the hand that pulls you undone
Though, I think it's safe to say, in my peripherals
In spite of myself, picked up a little sunbeam
You're throwing away a star,
You're choosing a bad game
Trashcan can't hold a star
And now your home's in flames
So are you going through
something I never knew?
Please just tell me it can't be you
That has burned me through and through
And if you want a favor
Not a friend
Swear to me you will not
Call again
And if you think I'm worth it in the end
That's nothing new,
It's not my fault
If you could never see it
So are you going through
Something I never knew?
Please just tell me it can't be you
that has burned me through
So are you going through
Something that you knew?
Please just tell me it can't be you
Anyone that's not you
So now I'm going through
Something you never knew
Please just tell me it was you
Even though I wish that weren't true
