Time is all I really have now Both a blessing and a curse I don’t know which one’s worse Watching you die Showed me how to live I learned to do those things I thought I already did Time is all I really have now Both a blessing and a curse I don’t know which one’s worse I hide my feelings Deep down in my sleep They’re locked away But never really out of reach I tried to slow time down You found a way to make it stop Yeah you made it stop I tried to slow time down You found a way to make it stop Yeah you made it stop Times I wonder If you were just a dream Memories never really what they seem Time is all I really have now Both a blessing and a curse I don’t know which one’s worse Watching you die Showed me how to live I learned to do those things I thought I already did I tried to slow time down You found a way to make it stop Yeah you made it stop I tried to slow time down You found a way to make it stop Yeah you made it stop

I talk about love and you look away Seems like it’s happening more and more each day You came in my life just like the wind I turn around, and you’re gone again You don’t know I’m barely holding on No you don’t know I’m barely holding on ‘Cause you don’t see me every time you’re gone So you don’t know I’m barely holding on I look in your eyes and they seem to say Maybe some other time but not today You’ve given me that look before A feeling that’s hard to ignore You don’t know I’m barely holding on No you don’t know I’m barely holding on ‘Cause you don’t see me every time you’re gone So you don’t know I’m barely holding on Is my heart the only one that sees it? I thought you felt the same way too? I’m on a thread now, can’t you feel it? Barely holding on to you I talk about love and you look away Seems like it’s happening more and more each day You came in my life just like the wind I turn around, and you’re gone again You don’t know I’m barely holding on No you don’t know I’m barely holding on ‘Cause you don’t see me every time you’re gone So you don’t know I’m barely holding on

You Can't Love Me 04:28

You can’t love me When you’re putting me down No you can’t love me When you’re running around Well I tried and tried and tried my best But that don’t matter enough I guess Cause you don’t love me Cause you can’t love me You go on and push me away Then wonder why I never stay It goes on day after day But now I’m learning a brand new way You don’t need anybody Sitting at home all alone and crying Been gone for a couple of days Is it true love or another phase? You can’t love me When you’re putting me down No you can’t love me When you’re running around Well I tried and tried and tried my best But that don’t matter enough I guess Cause you don’t love me Cause you can’t love me You never look me in the eye Talk all about it but you never try I know I don’t mean a thing Cause love to you is another fling When I see you it’s always the same Never want to talk, want to play the game Getting tired of uncertainty I’m you’re little fool and that’s all I’ll be You go on and push me away Then wonder why I never stay It goes on day after day But now I’m learning a brand new way You don’t need anyone Why don’t you just leave me alone Is it true that you’re sick at home? Then why don’t you ever answer your phone? You can’t love me When you’re putting me down No you can’t love me When you’re running around Well I tried and tried and tried my best But that don’t matter enough I guess Cause you don’t love me Cause you can’t love me

Just because I see her Doesn’t mean I don’t see you I’m here in the middle I don’t know which way to move How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love Saying things now to protect my heart A little more armor than I had at the start You stuck a dagger straight in my heart Now I’m returning the favor Oh what a fool I’ve been I couldn’t see love coming my way You never really loved me I should have know it all along How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love Just because I see her Doesn’t mean I don’t see you I’m here in the middle I don’t know which way to move How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love How can you fall in love? When you’re already in love
