I have my chance what in the hell am I waiting for
I offer my apology for the millionth time
I try in vain to try to get you to just open up
You never have an answer and I never question why
I stare outside your window
Waiting for it to begin
As you turn I’ll keep my head low.
Why can’t you let me in?
I’m in your head, too bad I know that’s not what I said
You twist my words til they seem good enough for you
You say I hurt your feelings and one thing is a fact
You think I’m disgusting, but I know you want me back
I stare outside your window
Waiting for it to begin
As you turn I’ll keep my head low.
Why can’t you let me in?
Out of your life but my picture remains
I never found the right things to say
Tell me who on earth are you fooling today
I’ve had all I can take
I’m leaving anyway
Somebody stop me
I had my chance why in the hell did I wait so long?
I offered my apology it’s shoved back in my face
I tried in vain to tell you, why did I wait so fucking long?
I spent all this time wondering what I had done wrong
I stare outside your window
Waiting for it to begin
As you turn I’ll keep my head low.
Why can’t you let me in?
