Every time you look at me
   baby, i can hardly breathe
   if i'd speak my voice would show
   my broken heart can't let you go
   i know you want to comfort me
   but i don't need your sympathy
   don't want part of you
   if it's not all of you
   right now i gotta be alone
  
   CHORUS
   you're telling me i will be okay
   you're trying to help me ease the pain
   but i can't pretend, after everything
   how can we be friends?
   you're telling me baby not to cry
   but you don't know how i feel inside
   it's gotta be the end, can't see you again
   how can we be friends?
  
   i've been loving you so long
   that it's not easy to be strong
   it's so hard pushing you away
   when all i want is for you to stay
   i know you want to hold me close
   but my emotions would overflow
   you're not helping me
   get over you and me
   so turn around and walk away
  
   CHORUS
  
   you don't have the right
   to come around here any time that you like
   you know it's killing me
   you want me to be someone i'll never be
   baby...
  
   CHORUS
