I had so much to give you   But you threw it all away   So I hole up in this corner   And act like I've nothing to say   Knowing that as soon as you ask me   If there's something wrong   I might blow up any minute   You'll say "I knew it all along   Yeah, he's just another young cynic   We get them all the time   If he just knew how to channel   All that anger he'd be fine".   So I sit with all these wishes and dreams dying on the vine   Knowing I could make you happy for a minute with a lie   But soon you'd see right through me   And like the rest I'd blow away   Cause I wasn't what you wanted   I don't make you feel okay   You'd say "if he just had kept some edge.   Man he looks so polished now   To bad i rememeber one time,   Should have heard the things he'd said,   And it all seemed so reckless   And I felt just like a kid.   Now he makes me nervous.   I think I'll look somewhere else instead."      So I sit here in this corner   So afraid to make a move.   If I start to look embarrassed   It's because I know you knew   All the bravery, all the anger   Was just covering up the fear   That I'd end up in some corner.   Now I sit here.
