I could say everything to you
But you could break my heart in two
I'd rather hold my breath and take what's left
And wait here for my cue
I wonder if I've been acting strange
Whenever I say your name
I hope you notice but then I don't
It's a silly game I play
I go through the same battle inside
I don't win cause neither me is right
And I do it all over again the next night
So I tell you in my head
And in my head you really care
I look you in the eye
And say I'd die without you by my side
And I know that sounds unlikely
And you'd think it so unlike me
But I don't have the guts
So I guess you'll love me not
When you're with your friends
And you're talking 'bout some girl that I don't know
It makes me feel like I'm not real
I'm a ghost in front of you
And you see I know it's not your fault
When your arm touches mine I go cold
You don't know and you probably won't
So I tell you in my head
And in my head you really care
I look you in the eye
And say I'd die without you by my side
And I know that sounds unlikely
And you'd think it so unlike me
But I don't have the guts
So I guess you'll love me not
And I wish I was anyone else
Someone you could think about
But then you hold me tightly
I smile politely and you're holding my gaze
And I'm thinking of saying something
But I'm hearing your phone start to ring
And a flash of an image takes me to my limit
And it's gone again
So I tell you in my head
And in my head you really care
I look you in the eye
And say I'd die without you by my side
And I know that sounds unlikely
And you'd think it so unlike me
But I don't have the guts
So I guess you'll love me not
No I don't have the guts
So I guess you'll love me not
