Why don't you see
How much you mean to me?
You taught me to hold myself up high
It's so hard, I want to break down and cry
Don't you get that in you I confide?
That I want to be your friend, to be by your side?
Obviously not, 'cuz you shrug me off every time
I get so close, then I fall, and back up I must climb
I've tried so hard, I've tried so long
What is it that I've done wrong?
Dang it! Dang it all!
Why do I even try? I know I'm gonna fall
I'm getting higher on your scale
I'm waiting, waiting. Am I gonna fail?
Then I let go, I'm falling fast
Dang! I can't do this! I've tried my last.
