If you aren't gonna be there
When i need you most
just walk away
don't turn around
i don't think i can take it
if you turn around to look
turn around to see if i would fall
to see if i can get through it all
without failing
and without breaking
If you aren't gonna be there
don't make any promises
for me to wait for you in the rain
while you're out there dry
safe and sound
the pitter patter falling at my feet
and all i hear is the promise you made
If you aren't gonna be there
just tell me
i won't lean on you
nor will i bother you
i fear not that you aren't there
but the fact that you dont' want to be there
So if you aren't gonna be there
raise your hand when i call your name
and tell me the truth
it won't hurt me in the front
but behind me i mite just shatter
