lyrics

How can I make a move when I'm so scared.
The friendship that binds us just can't be teared.
You're giving the signs but baby can't you see.
A man that hurts you is not my cup of tea.

I've been put down before
But I'll be fine if it's someone I adore.

The earth it moves and shifts like my heart.
Tearing and wearing whenever we're apart.
With the distance between it seems like just a dream.
And with the choices I've made it feels that I've been mean.

Reality's the anchor which provides
The Notion that our love can't survive.

Should I keep on hanging my heart
On the line whenever we're apart.
Is it time for me to move on.
When it feels that decision is wrong.

I am told that this position's key:
To keep moving on and be pleasantly free.
The move I take requires careful poise,
Two things considered in this delicate choice:

One is earth, and one is sky.
But only one can take me high.

I can feel our love fading away,
Like the light which brights my day.
I know my feelings remain pride and true.
But you don't think the way I do.

It's time for me to move on
'Cause it seems our love is gone.
The signs you gave have not returned.
Your turned back has made me learn.
That what you see is not what you get.
When feelings unrealized yet,
Lead me to believe things are set in stone,
When in the end, I'm just alone.

When in the end I'm just alone.

My record's breaking.
I've been reborn.
I know that I am not the real thorn.

Should I keep on hanging my heart
On the line whenever we're apart.
Is it time for me to move on.
When it feels that decision is wrong.

Reality's a big slap in the face.
You've been distorted behind this vase.
That caught my mind right in the place.
Where the anchor's been dropped in my face.
