Can't Keep Waiting

I've been waiting for a real long time to say this

Are you scared?

You've been taking me for granted, thinking confrontation

I wouldn't dare

You said I backed you in a corner

But we were in your room

You said I made you less important

We both know that's not true

You said I should just be patient

That I'd learn how to deal

I may be an actress

But I can't fake how I feel

I can't keep waiting

For us to want the same things

I can't help hating

We'll have different endings

I wanted to grow with you

Now I think I know that you

Would be better off

Growing without me

I can't keep waiting

'Cause it just hurts

I can't keep waiting

For us to work

I've been playing real nice even when I don't mean to

It's how I am

I've been telling everybody that I haven't seen you

Not that you ran

You said I backed you in a corner

But we were in your room

I just wanted a step forward

But you wouldn't move

I said that I couldn't take it

I don't know how to deal

I may be an actress

But I can't fake how I feel

I can't keep waiting

For us to want the same things

I can't help hating

We'll have different endings

I wanted to grow with you

Now I think I know that you

Would be better off

Growing without me

I can't keep waiting

'Cause it just hurts

I can't keep waiting

For us to work

Oh

You don't know what I've been through

Oh

You don't know what you missed

You think all you want is the road less traveled

But what you want is a map where that is

I can't keep waiting

For us to want the same things

'Cause I've been waiting

And I'm disappointed

I wanted to grow with you

Now I think I know that you

Would be better off

Growing without me

Without me

I can't keep waiting

'Cause it just hurts

I can't keep waiting

For us to work
