Think I've been lying to myself
Wondering how it could have been
Struggling to keep it in
Or see eye to eye with something new
'Cause I can't keep chasing it
And I was only just a kid

Waiting for you
To tie my shoes
It's all gone loose, and the screws
Are with my old man
He's got nothing to lose
But to ruin my plans

I always wondered how you felt
Keeping all the secrets in
Find it hard to reason with
Lied to a girl who hardly knew
But thought the world of you
Trying to trust in something new

Still waiting on you
To tie my shoes
It's all gone loose, and the screws
Are with my old man
He's got nothing to lose
But to ruin my plans
