Climb

You had your moments, I played a fool,

Whispers of hope, I broke all the rules.

You danced with another, left me in the air,

Now you want me back, but that's just not fair.

You see me moving on, with a heart that’s free,

You're desperate for an anchor, lost at sea

An unsteady drifter, clinging to our memory

But I put miles between us, I won't be your trophy

You don’t want me, but can’t let me go,

A tangled mess of yes and no.

Terrified I'll leave and find someone new,

But baby, you're gone, what else can I do?

You want my attention, you want my time,

Is it all just a game, a mountain to climb?

Thought I was the one, but I waited in vain,

While you wrote your love songs, I drowned in my pain.

Now you see my smile, shining in the sun,

And your eyes scream, “You were the only one.”

But I’m not your shadow, aching for a call,

You had your chance, you can’t have it all.

Woven in threads of your uncertain mind,

No more waiting around, I'll repay in kind.

You don’t want me, but can’t let me go,

A tangled mess of yes and no.

Terrified I'll leave and find someone new,

But baby you're gone, what else can I do?

You want my attention, you want my time,

Is it all just a game, a mountain to climb?

Once a fallen angel, wings battered and bruised,

I begged for attention, for any piece of you.

But I deserve a love that’s steady and true,

Not just the scraps when you’re feeling blue.

You don’t want me, but can’t let me go,

A tangled mess of yes and no.

Terrified I'll leave and find someone new,

But baby you're gone, what else can I do?

You want my attention, you want my time,

Is it all just a game, a mountain to climb?

If she's been the one warming your bed,

Why is my voice the one singing in your head?

Do you love her, or just want her to be me?
