[Verse 1]
I'm not a monster
I know you're fragile
I know that I've got some explaining to do
Wish I could stay and
Tell you I love you
Got to keep lying, I can't tell you the truth

I can't say why
This will be the last time
Last time you're ever gonna speak to me
One day you'll see where
See where this came from
Look back and smile and understand where you'll be
I had to leave

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
I've never felt this
Feeling I'm feeling
You understand me in a way that's so real
We shoot the breeze, oh
We talk about nothing
Nothing should stop me but loving you is not meant to be
I have to leave
[Chorus]
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love
I'm not the one you should trust
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love, oh no
No I'm not the one

[Verse 3]
I'm not a monster
I know you're special
I've never felt this before, it's unreal
I wanna stay
How it kills me to leave you
Still I must go regardless of how I feel

You'll be lonely
But sooner or later
You'll meet a guy who'll take you where you should be
I'll be a distant
Thought not worth holding
Please, don't you cry
You can forget about me
Oh, I had to leave

[Chorus 2]
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love
I'm not the one you should trust
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love
Oh no, oh no
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love
I'm not the one you should trust
I'm not the one
I'm not the one you should love, oh no
No I'm not the one
