Burned out, still glowing
|
But I'm not worth knowing
|
Some sickened story that follows you
|
Becoming untrue
|
Where bright tomorrows
|
Give you comfort in sorrow
|
Go around taking back mistakes
|
Just to remake them
|
Now you want to show me
|
How you hate the side of me I want
|
You know I'm not your lover now
|
And I will never be, that's why
|
Now you want to show me
|
How you hate the side of me I want
|
You know I'm not your lover now
|
And I will never be
|
When I hear your footsteps
|
My lip slips, my feet trip
|
Washed out small talk, that's all I can do
|
To interact with you
|
Because no word of kindness
|
Puts the whole thing behind us
|
Do you think the time would stop for me and you?
|
Do you think I could make it?
|
Now you want to show me
|
How you hate the side of me I want
|
You know I'm not your lover now
|
And I will never be, that's why
|
Why you want to show me
|
How you hate the side of me I want?
|
You know I'm not your lover now
|
And I will never be
|
Got rid of me, got rid of me
|

Now You Want To Show Me How
