If you wanted time
if you wanted space
if you needed love
or just a long break
it would've been okay
but not a word did you say.

I'm the sleep you need and the air you breathe. at this stoplight you'll see, you'll never be without me. as red turns to green, the love you're feeling is not yours to keep.

You smile like a secret
like you have the answer to the world.

You think about yourself too much,
and you ruin who you love.

When we're alone you adore me.
When we're both dressed you ignore me.

No air, I'm breathing better

Take this feeble mind
and mold it into something better
and help me realize that I won't live forever.
I know it's been a while
but I swear you wouldn't be so lonely
if only you'd let me in

All day long I can hear people talking aloud but
when you hold me near you drown out the crowd.
Old Mr. Webster could never define what's
been said between your heart and mine

I know Im on your mind with the worst intentions.
I'm working up the guts to say you weren't enough.
Fcuk what your friends will say; I never was about you anyway

Is this what you want? 'Cause everybody acts without a clue.
Every little kiss and grin you gave was just a little bullshit I saw through.
