Head underwater, and they tell me to breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
Made room for me, it′s too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I′m unusually hard to hold on to, hmm
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you asked for it, ′cause you need one
You see, I′m not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it′s make or break in this
If you're on your way
I′m not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving, I'ma need a better reason
To write you a love song today
Today, yeah
I learned the hard way that they all say things you wanna hear
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you
And your twisted words, your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry, hmm
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I′m not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you asked for it, 'cause you need one
You see, I′m not gonna write you a love song
′Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If you′re on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving, I′ma need a better reason
To write you a love song today
