That's Not Me

It's time that you realized who you talk to at night I am a little bird always tensing for flight Can I be trusted? I worry I can't At least I am who I say I am I know I'm not living for anyone else Don't harbor foolish illusions about my simple self, but Should you rely on me? I worry you can't At least I am who I say I am And some girls out to tell you they're the one that you need That's not me, that's not me, that's not me See, I'm the one you get wary of when you feel you've begun to believe Do you get it? Do you understand? Do you see? It's time that you knew just who you've let in your heart I hold a standing ticket for the next plane to depart, and The feeling that burns in me is aching to fly Too restless to tell you or say goodbye And some girls out to tell you they're the one that you need That's not me, that's not me, that's not me See, I'm the one you get wary of when you feel you've begun to believe Do you get it? Do you understand? Do you see? The friction within me is keeping me still I don't think I loved you and I don't think I ever will So if you should run from me, I'd take off my hat You're the first in a long, long line who's managed that
