lyrics

Often when I look into your eyes, I see
There was always someone else
To keep you from yourself
As long as he loves you, I'll never tell

Often I can see right through your thighs, paralyzed
You knew I was there to help
But you stuffed it deep in yourself
As long as he lives, I'll never tell

Can't you see I'm running on borrowed time
Can't you see these feeling aren't yours, they're mine
I know you've changed so strong from a weed to a tree
I can't always get what I want, you limbs grow to high for me

Often I can see through your disguise, and your lies
But I know there's something else
That keeps you from yourself
As long as he loves you I'll never tell

Can't you see I'm running on borrowed time
Can't you see these feeling aren't yours, they're mine
I know you've changed so strong from a weed to a tree
I can't always get what I want, you limbs grow to high for me
