All that's between us right now is a flight of stairs and Some words we've been meaning to say, but have been Putting off and saving for a day that might never come I could run away or Run into your arms or I could just stay under the covers where I'm safe and warm and alone You've stuck with me a couple years now, but I've been stuck with myself much longer I've tried my luck and I've tried to leave, but I've never tried hard enough I haven't found a place for myself yet because they're all taken And you haven't asked, but if you're wondering I'm doing well out here, but I'd be better off somewhere else

Never Enough, Always Too Much
All that's between us right now is a flight of stairs and Some words we've been meaning to say, but have been Putting off and saving for a day that might never come I could run away or Run into your arms or I could just stay under the covers where I'm safe and warm and alone You've stuck with me a couple years now, but I've been stuck with myself much longer I've tried my luck and I've tried to leave, but I've never tried hard enough I haven't found a place for myself yet because they're all taken And you haven't asked, but if you're wondering I'm doing well out here, but I'd be better off somewhere else
On leaving home, growing older, changing, not changing
