The Same​

​

These days we stay in the sheets when we wake from sleep
It’s made me late each day this week
There’s no need to explain 'cause it’s plain to see
That she’s changing me

It’s never gone well when I’ve tried before
But all I really want is some time alone
But she holds on tight and won’t let go
Which just goes to show

That we can’t communicate
We never began and now it’s too late

She wants more us, I want more space
She’s willing to do whatever it takes
Just to make it work
Which just makes it worse
She says she wants no one else
But I know I don’t know myself
Well enough to say that I feel the same

She’ll say she loves me for who I am
As she takes the good without the bad
And shames me into a different man
When I don’t accord to plan

But how could I ever leave
When I’m what makes her happy?
It’s my responsibility
And my friends tell me

That it’s not and it never will be
But she’s still got this hold on me

She wants more us, I want more space
She’s willing to do whatever it takes
Just to make it work
Which just makes it worse
She says she wants no one else
But I know I don’t know myself
Well enough to say that I feel the same

'Cause I’ve lost touch with who I once was
And she believes that it’s easy for me

To leave someone I love
But I’m gonna miss you so damn much

She wants more us, I want more space
She’s willing to do whatever it takes
Just to make it work
Which just makes it worse
When I say that I want to be free
She agrees and stares back at me
But she’ll never see just what I mean
