you make me weak
the things you say
the lies you tell

while walking in your sleep
you try to run
but you can't move

you wait for the night
you hope that i am through

you tell me to leave
i have nowhere to go

so i draw too near
and you pull away
pretend i'm not there
pretend i don't feel
i'm not good enough
like i'm too strange
i guess i'm too strange

my eyes keep closing on me
just like these walls of pain
you look so beautiful
you see me losing hope

i want to touch your skin
you say i'm smothering
he touches everything
you're delighted with him

so i pull too close
and you look away
pretend that you're fair
pretend i'm not real
i'm not good enough
like i'm too strange
i guess i'm too strange

i'm alone with
nothing but the world
left to frown on me

i'm alone with
nothing but the world
nothing but the world and me
