Does he or not
It’s all confusing
It’s not pleasant
The wanting to
Figure him out
But you can’t
You try
But it’s not always easy
When he doesn’t
Let on about himself
It like a never ending game
But it is he that is holding
All of the cards
You want him
To come clean
About how he feels
Toward you
So you can avoid looking
Like a fool
But he might want to say
Something to you
But he is not sure
If you’re ready
To hear what he has to say

We were both impressed enough
At least our eyes were saying so
I asked her where she was going
For some reason she didn’t know

I wonder what you are really like
Is there any faith in what you know
I wonder if you are even aware
You went the wrong way long ago

You have no idea
No idea if you're gonna stay
And I'm so weird
You're gonna walk away

She tried to be everything that’s good
It makes it hard to face the truth
It’s easier to say I forgive you all the time
And only think about the games of youth

I noticed she was still looking at me
She had no idea how my mind just exploded
The entire thought was like a shot of whiskey
It went down hard but now my heart is loaded

You have no idea
No idea if you're gonna stay
But I know
You're gonna walk away

She said I’m not sorry for being real
I thought why so hard when we just met
That’s no way to start a love affair
But being strong are the only words she left

I wondered if that was a good thing
You know how people can be
She’s trying too hard to prove herself
Somebody made her feel less than me

Truth is hard
You don’t have to talk about it so much
It makes me wonder if you’re really full of doubt
You don’t have to talk about it
But is it true
Is love something you’d rather live without?

You never gave me a chance
All you can think about is your past
Too bad I wasn’t in it
Maybe you wouldn’t be so downcast

Down to earth
We both survived
We want more
Are we still alive?

Truth is hard
You don’t have to talk about it so much
It makes me wonder if you’re really full of doubt
You don’t have to talk about it
But is it true
Am I somebody you’d rather live without?
