Been sittin' eyes wide open
Behind these four walls, hopin' you'd call
It's just a cruel existence
Like there's no point hopin' at all
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Up all night, all night and every day
Give me somethin', oh, but you say nothin'
What is happening to me?
I don't want to live forever
cause I know I'll be living in vain
and I wanna fit wherever
I just wanna keep calling your name
until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
until you come back home
I'm sittin' eyes wide open
And I got one thing stuck in my mind
wonderin' if I dodged a bullet
or just lost the love of my life, oh. . .
All my little plans and schemes
Lost like some forgotten dreams
seems that all I really doing
was waitin' for you.
Just like little girls and boys
Playing with their little toys
Seems like all they really were doing
Was waitin' for love
Don't need to be alone
No need to be alone
It's real love
It's real
Yes, it's real love
It's real
[Instrumental Break]
From this moment on I know
Exactly where my life will go
Seems that all I really was doing
Was waitin' for love
Verse 1]
I've never been confident
Never wanted to take my shirt off in front of girls
And it's probably
Something that I have learned, need come to terms and be honest with
But I'm too scared of what people might say
I'm afraid
Of everyone judgin' me
Once they observe what I preserve, they stop lovin' me
'Cause that just hurts, I did it first and cuttin' me
Deeper than a knife ever cut
I'm no good
[Chorus]
Give me strength
I've too many tim?s here in the qui?t
In my bed, I hate myself but I do it in private
I'm so scared, I just can't have you anywhere near me
'Cause what if you see me the way that I see me?
[Verse 2]
I think I owe an apology
To the kid I was when I was young 'cause I promised him
That I'll figure all this out by the time that he got here
But that was a lie and I am still ashamed
'Cause I'm to blame, ooh, ooh-ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
The war that I'm fightin' is fought by a person I can't see (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
And lately I'm hidin'
All 'cause of me
[Chorus]
Give me strength
I've too many times here in the quiet
In my bed, I hate myself but I do it in private
I'm so scared, I just can't have you anywhere near me
'Cause what if you see me the way that I see me?
Lost my head, I'm not too proud of the way that I'm hidin'
My eyes are wet, been months since I caught myself smilin'
I'm so scared, I just can't have you anywhere near me
'Cause what if you see me the way that I see me?
[Outro]
Give me strength
I've too many times here in the quiet
In my bed, I hate myself but I do it in private
I'm so scared, I just can't have you anywhere near me
'Cause what if you see me the way that I see me?
Lost my head, I'm not too proud of the way that I'm hiding'
All 'cause of me
