I keep my hands in my pockets
'Cause it's 80 degrees outside and I'm always cold
I bring my own jacket wherever I go
'Cause if my hands are in my pockets you have nothing to hold
I like to stare at the ground
'Cause there's always something interesting on the floor
Like the excuse to dismiss you want something more
If my eyes are on the floor
They'll never meet yours
You knew what you wanted from the start
And I was just trying not to break your heart
'Cause I can't be what you're looking for
With every step I'm just gonna let you down even more
'Cause you've got this idea in your head that I am everything you wanted but I'm not so sure
And I don't want to be the one
You wasted your time waiting for
Tried every trick in the book
Drained our conversations of depth and left them to dry out with time
But no amount of hints I dropped ever caught your eye
Tried every trick in the book cause I'm too scared to say goodbye
I'm just gonna hurt you either way
It doesn't matter what I say
'Cause I can't be what you're looking for
With every step I'm just gonna let you down even more
'Cause you've got this idea in your head that I am everything you wanted but I'm not so sure
And I don't want to be the one
Who wasted your time
Can't be the girl of your dreams that you met in college
The one you talk up when you call your mamma
Can't be the girl that you bring back to your home town the one that makes you want to put your knee to the ground
I can't be your plus one to Thanksgiving dinner
Or the girl that you kiss when the ball drops in winter
You see a future in my eyes
But all I see is I've failed to tell you that I
I can't be what you're looking for
With every step I'm just gonna let you down even more
'Cause you've got this idea in your head that I am everything you wanted but I'm not so sure
And I don't want to be the one
You wasted your time waiting for
