Why do I keep on ending up right where I started?
I should know better than to make the same mistakes
I'm holding on to my last ounce of motivation
I'm giving in before I lose all of my strength

But oh god you're looking so appealing in the limelight
You shine so bright that I'm a shadow in your name
But no one seems to live up to your expectations
No one who satisfies and takes away the pain

And I don't know if things will be the same
We both have grown but nothing seems to change
Lately I don't show the things that I should say
And only time will tell if you forget my name

Don't look at me like I'm the one with all the answers
I've been all ears cause I don't know what I should say
My friends keep telling me that my whole life's been backwards
Can't make a move to comfortable to act my age

But I'm so shy, for the first time
I never thought I'd see the day that you might make me change my mind
I'm seeing you for the first time
I've never felt so hypnotized
Look me in the eye you'll see I'm not such a bad guy
I want to know if things will be the same
We both have grown but nothing seems to change
Lately I don't show the things that I should say
And only time will tell if you forget my name
And only time will tell if you forget my name

I know no matter what I won't forget your name
