But I Can't

I used to walk past the ones

Who wanted to be caught

To chase the ones

Who wanted to be chased

Oh what a waste it was

Oh what a waste it’s gonna be

I used to jump up to chase

The broken ones

Leap to my feet

For cloaks that wouldn’t run

Oh what a waste it was

Oh what a waste it’s gonna be

I know I should be different but I can’t

It’ll probably drive you

To the arms of another man

I know I could be different but I can’t

I know I should be different but I can’t

It’ll probably kill me to see you

In the arms of another man

I know I should be different but I can’t

I know I should wake up

I know I should change

I’m hurting us both and

Driving you away

Oh what a waste it was

Oh what a waste it’s gonna be

I’m less of a person

And more of a train

The woman on the tracks

Just can’t be saved

Oh what a waste it was

Oh what a waste it’s gonna be
