V1
All of the moments side by side/ and all the waiting/ I made a promise to be kind/ but
I betrayed it/ I tried to keep it to myself/ wanted to save it/ you always know when
something’s wrong/ and so I slipped away
C
Maybe it’s my selfishness/ or maybe I’m too young/ I always hold a little bit/ back with
all I’ve done/ so things fade away/ things fade away from me
V2
I always take what I can get/ and keep what’s staying/ instead of thinking of regrets/ and
your heart breaking/ I want to tell you what I’ve done/ but I’m afraid/ I’ve always been a
loaded gun/ and you got in the way
C
Maybe it’s my selfishness/ or maybe I’m too young/ I always hold a little bit/ back with
all I’ve done/ so things fade away/ things fade away from me
