lyrics

I don't want to, I don't need to, I could never live so far from zero,
feed my ego, burning away my soul
I'd like to be up front with you,
you know boys don't cry, it's all a lie I'm told

I couldn't leave you, if I wanted to
tied together in a lie, I bet it feels so good to cry just one time
and every step I take is such a climb

I can't help you, I can't save you from, myself and what we've done
have you realized how time has spun, away from what we were
I know you'd go back if you could,
do you believe that the girls don't try, it's all a lie I'm told

I couldn't leave you, if I wanted to,
tied together in this life, I bet if feels so good to die in due time
and every step I take is just a climb

Did it hurt when I said, I didn't get your letter from Venus
cause' it's hurts when you say, I misread your far away feelings
