Tell me how you keep me hanging on your words
Everything you say makes me hooked on you
You’re too intense and crazy, laughing and amazing
There’s so much else I don’t have the time to say
And I wish I could count the hours we have left to spend
But your voice keeps getting louder, I can’t get a word in
Just listen, listen to what I have to say
And maybe together we can figure out a way

And everything is happening way, way fast
It's all piling up, and I can't get past
What you claim is love, I see as lost
Cause all that you want is something I'm not
I'm just a filler for the boredom in your life
It's now in the open, I can see clear
Don't know what I was thinking, thinking you'd care

I wish I could take back all that I have said
Turn back the clock, get you out of my head
These scars are hidden in places even you can't see
But everyday I'm alive, they still haunt me
Why do this when you can see I have done nothing wrong?
I knew I suspected what you've proven to me as true
But why do I still feel as if I’ve been betrayed by you?
I am just a girl and you are just a boy
And I had hoped when you broke my heart, you’d tell me why

And everything is happening way, way fast
It's all piling up, and I can't get past
What you claim is love, I see as lost
Cause all that you want is something I'm not
I'm just a filler for the boredom in your life
It's now in the open, I can see clear
Don't know what I was thinking, thinking you'd care

You told me that you'd never lie
That you hated to break my heart
But how can I believe when all the evil I've seen
Points me back to you
You told me that you'd never hurt me
That you'd never make me cry
Is that why when you do you close your eyes?
