You look at me like I’m talking
Staring at a wall
You give me that look like you expect me to fall
Like I haven’t fallen; like I don’t still stand tall
This weighs on my conscience that you are mocking
I just throw my hands in the air
I’ll just put my best foot forward
All I want is for you to care
I swear and I’ll give you my word
Now sit down right here
And listen to what I say
Your love hit me like a spear
And I may feel about you one way today
I tremble and shake when you are near
Oh God, how I want you to know
But I just sleep it all away
The heavy anchor that I tow
Which I should have known how it would sink below
I’m not the man you want
And all the times I talk out into space
When you look at me like this is some sort of stunt
When I come to grips and look myself in the face
I’ve left it all behind and there is no trace
I could tell you what’s on my mind
Tell you how I love you
I just know that one day I will find
This pay dirt to validate what I’m going through
