You speak subtle words
At times when I'm starved for conversation
feel alone in a crowded room
And its true I'm to blame for all I do
Forget us, it was never me and you
I can't ever tell you I need this
I rely on these miles between us
To keep me on the sidelines
Until you realize the lack of good in goodbyes
And your eyes that shined bright, they died
The feelings you had will hide
But don't say I ever lied to you
I was days away from home
I saw things you'll never know
I saw myself in a comfortable glow
And a vulnerable skin you were too scared to show
At times when I'm starved for conversation
feel alone in a crowded room
And its true I'm to blame for all I do
Forget us, it was never me and you
I can't ever tell you I need this
I rely on these miles between us
To keep me on the sidelines
Until you realize the lack of good in goodbyes
And your eyes that shined bright, they died
The feelings you had will hide
But don't say I ever lied to you
I was days away from home
I saw things you'll never know
I saw myself in a comfortable glow
And a vulnerable skin you were too scared to show
