Keeping It Real

Well you've said it before (Not that I'm keeping score) This is one sweet continuum But I'm holding my ground It's so recently found And so easily lost when you're near me I've been letting you go You've been trying to let everyone know It's a numbers game Have no shame But I don't see the appeal Of the texting and ghosting And meanwhile pretending we're keeping it real No need to feel Well you've said it before (Not that I'm keeping score) That the lever is leaving the middle Please don't push it around Please don't force it to rebound For the fibers are tenuous still I've been letting you go You've been trying to make sure I know That you've changed for good (Like I knew you could) But I can't get right Cause each time I say one thing It's one thing too many I'm keeping the door safely in sight So please don't hold me like that anymore Please don't ask me to question what I have been sure of Please don't hold me like that anymore Please don't ask me to question what I have been sure of Please don't hold me like that Please don't hold me like that Please don't hold me like that anymore
