I won't give up, try me

You say I've got to use my time more wisely

You've "moved on"

I should too,

but all I see is your anxiety rising

I never slipped up, hardly

You say I'm the one who treated you kindly

We are one

You feel it too

Still you walk past my love so blindly

I don't know who I am anymore

Tears engraved in my eyes

That's for sure

What did I miss?

On the surface we just clicked

Tears engraved in my eyes

That's for sure

I screwed up, likely

You say I've got to use my time more wisely

You've "moved on"

That may be true,

but all I see is your anxiety climbing

I wasn't quick enough, might be

Still I'm the one that treated you so kindly

We are one

You feel it too

Still you walk past my love so blindly

I don't know who I am anymore

Tears engraved in my eyes

That's for sure

What did I miss?

On the surface we just clicked

Tears engraved in my eyes

That's for sure
