Throw yourself back you were better back then
But then you started to play dumb and you started to pretend
You say a lot of words but they don't make sense
No I think I'm better off by myself in the end
It's time now for drop off home at 3 o'clock in the morning and I'm still alone with you
It's never a good idea to show what you have in your mind and you're all alone with me too
Keep your secrets to yourself
And put me high up on a shelf
Look at me when you walk by
Just enough to make me cry
A sidewalk's cracks you step on my back and you look away as the bones begin to crack
Keep me healthy keep me strong
Don't keep me with you all day long
You're hurting me, don't look at me
Don't look at me, don't look at me
Keep your secrets to yourself
And put me high up on a shelf
Look at me when you walk by
Just enough to make me cry
Now listen you're a very talented individual
Make it seem like you care when you couldn't care less
It's pretty impressive
And I never would've guessed that all this time
I was just the one who'd watch from the sideline while you ran off with somebody else
But you were never mine to begin with
Just a dream of mine that I live with everyday, and it eats away
At whatever made me think you were any good in the first place
I'm over it by now, I'm over you
And all the excuses that you couldn't love me
I just wish you never told me
Keep your secrets to yourself
And put me high up on a shelf
Look at me when you walk by
Just enough to make me cry
Make me cry
