You've validated my neglect And though I'm worthy of respect I don't think that I deserve it It's not that I can't share my past I just don't like things going fast Oh, but don't just tolerate it Oh, I don't know why I'm so bad at figuring it out 'Cause when it's time to tell you how I'm feeling I can almost hear the sound of you leaving Yeah, when I'm ready to tell you how I'm feeling You'll be long gone I think that you've been way too nice And it was good to break the ice But it's not just the ice that's broken Oh, I don't know why I'm so bad at letting it all out 'Cause when it's time to tell you how I'm feeling I can almost hear the sound of you leaving Yeah, when I'm ready to tell you how I'm feeling You'll be long gone Trying to move on From that fool who led you on But it's not that simple, dear Oh, I'm really trying here Give me a week Maybe a year Cause I don't know why I'm so bad at figuring it out And when it's time to tell you how I'm feeling How I dread the thought of leaving I won't be ready to tell you how I'm feeling Yeah, when I'm ready to tell you how I'm feeling Don't be long gone Before you're gone
