Lyrics

She only hopes for what she knows she can't get
While I'm holding her up from the inside
She thinks if it can't reach her
It can't expose her as less than perfect
Like everyone tells her she is
I won't expect
Anything
I am not really like this
I have put me off so long
I can't even really fight
This 'cause I have wanted you so long
And when she reaches for me it's in fits of longing
To express what she can't say
To admit she's not okay
I painted my walls twice the day you left
Couldn't get it right
Just when I think the color's set
The old one bleeds through
And I can't write when I can't breathe
Well what does the long run mean anyway
I don't know why I'm holding on for it
While she takes everything she wants now
I won't go
Anywhere
And she makes me guess what she wants
And I guess lately
I want to feel like I'm right
But when she calls me baby
I don't want to hear about your trip
I couldn't sleep at night
I let you make up the rules
But mine stay the same
And I can't write when I can't breathe
So I make excuses for this girl I love
And I make her swear she'll never do again
The things I want her to most
It is such a contradiction
I want her to say the right words
But she changes all of the meanings
Cause she's afraid of definitions
And she makes me guess what she wants
And I guess lately
I want to feel like I'm right
But when she calls me baby
I don't want to hear about your trip
I couldn't sleep at night
I let you make up the rules
But mine stay the same
And I can't write when I can't breathe
I can't make her keep a promise she never made
I can't make her keep it
