Your cowardice
I can't stand it
God forbid you should have to feel
I see the way you work things

With a sigh of regret
And a look of resolve
You ask me if I'll be OK
God, you're so pathetic

It seems like you excel at beginning
And then you always fail to follow through
You pack up and you move on

Which reminds me of what they were saying
That everyone loves you for six months
And when it gets real
Watch you run

Trying to be sweet with
"It's not you, it's me"
Well, how real do you want to get
Because you're inviting misery

We could never just be
Had to discuss everything
Until there's nothing left to feel
It all had to have meaning

I noticed
How you gently
Touched only the edges
I saw myself under those hands

Now someone
Moved in you
Like a vacant apartment
My heart is full of a figment

It seems like you excel at beginning
And then you always fail to follow through
You give up and you move on

Which reminds me of what they were saying
That everyone loves you for six months
And when it gets real
Watch you run

It seems like you excel at beginning
And then you just become unbearable
All night talks that go nowhere

Which reminds me of what they were saying
That everyone loves you for six months
And then crazy kills the fun
And we move on
