[Intro]
Tell me how I could say it so simply then
That it was gonna be easier when
Tell me how I could move, so I won't stand
I'm right in front of what you had to miss
I just want you to look through me
And find whatever you need to see
And I could pretend that I'll be happy to show it
But you don't waste your time

[Chorus]
When you wanna stay
I'll try to keep the image you want
So we can go, and try to stay beneath it all
When you move on ahead from me
If you couldn't wait, I'll try to do whatever you want
So we can talk, and say that I'm beneath it all
When you go on ahead with him

[Bridge]
I just needed to walk 'cause your not hitting me back
And I've been making mistakes along the way
I don't know what you want to [thrive whеre we're at?]
But will you tеll me the truth for once today?

[Verse]
Couldn't be another way
You've been trying hard to say
It's an easy target for your pleasure now but anyway
I don't want to hear it now
You don't wanna shut me out
You just made me fall off the raft, and leave me to drown
I wanted to keep this thing just how we found it
But you don't know what, I just always got it
'Cause whenever you tested
It's always a process, but I wanna know you too
[Chorus]
When you wanna stay
I'll try to keep the image you want
So we can go, and try to stay beneath it all
When you move on ahead from me
If you couldn't wait, I'll try to do whatever you want
So we can talk, and say that I'm beneath it all
When you go on ahead with him
