lyrics
I lift you up
You put me down
I gave you trust
But you didn't know how
I took your hand
You let me go
I changed my plans
But you'll never know
Giving me that look
Trying to push, push all the time
All those things you took
Still you push, push over the line on me but...
I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
You send me pain
I make it mine
You want my name
I still wonder why
You find my flaws
I make it right
You say I'm wrong
I start to question this fight
Giving me that look
Trying to push, push all the time
All those things you took
Still you push, push over the line on me but...
I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
I could have loved you if you'd only let me be myself
Instead you broke me down and cried when I wouldn't help
I thought I heard that love can heal it if you just make time
But the signs of fading love means it's time to say goodbye
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
You put me down
I gave you trust
But you didn't know how
I took your hand
You let me go
I changed my plans
But you'll never know
Giving me that look
Trying to push, push all the time
All those things you took
Still you push, push over the line on me but...
I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
You send me pain
I make it mine
You want my name
I still wonder why
You find my flaws
I make it right
You say I'm wrong
I start to question this fight
Giving me that look
Trying to push, push all the time
All those things you took
Still you push, push over the line on me but...
I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
I could have loved you if you'd only let me be myself
Instead you broke me down and cried when I wouldn't help
I thought I heard that love can heal it if you just make time
But the signs of fading love means it's time to say goodbye
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you need
No, I don't want it
I don't want it for me
You know that I don't want it
I don't want what you see
Save your dream for someone else
I don't want you living for me
