Scared of my shadow Afraid of myself Never thought I could be so shallow Resort to playing a man It's a thin line that I walk for her A thin line that I walk Between myself and what I have to do The action and the thought Oh her, her, it's her Oh, her, her Feel like I've been dancing The lights have finally come on Just waiting for my eyes adjusting To see how ugly I've become She asked me for no promises I made them to myself I've given myself no choices now It's the only way out () She tied back her hair Wrapped the band around Pulled off her rings And dropped them in a jar I'm not there, not waving my arms round I've gotten the 'flu It's blocking my heart To her ()
