lyrics

Am I off putting when I say that I love you?
Is it unnecessary? I don't know
I just wish you'd call when I left for home today
And I know that I'll be fine

Don't turn around when I try to say your name
I won't have any stupid things left to say
I'll be OK if you don't turn the page
There's nothing there for you or me

I'm already moving on I cannot stand here waiting for you
I'm already out the door I can't make up these lies anymore
I'm already headed out you're no good for me and that is true
I'll be gone for good and I just found the strength to tell you

So when you start to scream don't come and scream at me
I think you know I need to let my conscience be
Just don't look back to the time when I knew well
When all my dreams were underwhelmed

I'm already moving on I cannnot stand here waiting for you
I'm already out your door I can't make up these lies anymore
I'm already headed out you're no good for me and that is true
I'll be gone for good and I just found the strength to tell you

Then I start second guessing
Then I start un-represing
Then I know that I'm on my way
Come up with nothing
Come up with nothing

And when you're lonely know that this is not the end
I've still got tricks and games for you to break and mend
And if you're lost you can look to the sun
It's more reliable than me

She'll forget about me if I keep my conscience clean
The other girl will come and take my self esteem
I'll walk away from the wreak of my old self
And come out someone who I hate

Then I start second guessing
Then I start un-represing
Then I know that I'm on my way
Come up with nothing
Come up with nothing
