Rescue Me

I give you so much more than you deserve
I love you when I know it's going to hurt
I guess I'm partly to blame, you see
I let you do everything you did to me
I knew when I saw you the first time
you would never really be mine
I never knew my heart could break
until you took everything could take

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
For me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
A little more
Before you tell me you're in love
with her

She might be the one to make you feel
the same feeling you give to me
but don't look at me when she's not around
Knowing if you keep me quiet, she won't find out
Don't remember me only when you want to
just to forget about just as soon
Someday you'll know what it's like to be ignored
to hear muffled voices from behind the door

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
for me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
a little more
before you tell me you're in love
with her

I thought that maybe you could change
but you proved me wrong and stayed the same
I need a hero, I need a hero
to catch me before I hit the floor

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
for me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
a little more
Before you tell me you're in love
with her

Make sure you do some growing up
please
Before you figure out you're in love
with me

I'll Pretend

Tears fall down my cheeke
I feel so small, so weak
Your words burn my skin
and more and more, I cave in
and as you head for the door,
I know I don't want you to go

I'll pretend it doesn't break my heart
that you're not tearing me apart
I'll pretend I'm not missing your kiss
and it's not you that I miss
I'm pretend I can see the sun
and tell myself you're not the one
I'll pretend I never loved you so
but you're the only thing I know

Everyday that goes by
Still all I do is cry
I used to sit on your knees
now I'm left with memories
I know I need to move on,
but I can't admit you're gone

I'll pretend it doesn't break my heart
that you're not tearing me apart
I'll pretend I'm not missing your kiss
and it's not you that I miss
I'll pretend I can see the sun
and tell myself you're not the one
I'll pretend I never loved you so
but you're the only thing I know

I don't want to feel this pain
I'm pretending for my own sake
Just give me more time
I'll forget you were ever mine

I'll pretend it doesn't break my heart
that you're not tearing me apart
I'll pretend I'm not missing your kiss
and it's not you that I miss
I'll pretend I can see the sun
and tell myself you're not the one
I'll pretend I never loved you so
and learn to finally let you go
