i have set aside everything i love
i have saved everything else for you
i cannot decide what this doubt's made of
though i thought over it through and through
in a book in a box high upon a shelf
in a locked and guarded vault
are the things i keep only for myself
it's your fate but it's not your fault
[chorus:]
and for every useless reason i know
there's a reason not to care
if i hide myself wherever i go
am i ever really there?
there is nowhere else i would rather be,
but i can't just be right here
an enigma wrapped in a mystery,
or a fool consumed by fear
[chorus]
i will give you all i could ever give
though it's less than you will need
could you just forget, if you can't forgive
all the things i cannot concede
[chorus] |
