my head spinning around,
heard you found me...
but all i see is the ground,
coming up around me...

can't see what you see
in her,
in her...
i remember the days
when it was all just a blur...

but now i see
who you really are,
and baby, that's okay,
you were never my star...

You opened the window
to my eyes,
but you went left,
and i stayed right...

the promises you kept me,
said you'd never hurt me...
you say you wanna help me,
but you just make it worse...

bite much more than you can chew...
you get in too deep...
and all you ever talk about
are promises you can't keep...

my heart beating fast,
i saw you coming...
your stare catches me eye,
and my brain starts numbing...

don't know what you know
about her,
'bout her...
all the things i know,
you shouldn't be so sure...

but now i see
who you really are,
and baby, that's okay,
you were never my star...

You opened the window
to my eyes,
but you went left,
and i stayed right...

the promises you kept me,
said you'd never hurt me...
you say you wanna help me,
but you just make it worse...

bite much more than you can chew...
you get in too deep...
and all you ever talk about
are promises you can't keep...

...why can't you see
that you belong with me?
i been chasin you down,
but you haven't come around...

...why can't you see
that we were meant to be?
open your eyes,
don't listen to her lies...

you opened the window
to my eyes,
but you went left,
and i stayed right...

...
...
bite much more than you can chew...
you get in too deep...
and all you ever talk about,
are promises you can't keep...

...and all you ever talk about,
are promises you can't keep...
