You've been talking for an hour, and I swear to God that I can't hear a word you say

But will you come to me, come to me

I get caught up and the waves of conversation they wash over me

And they cover me, they cover me



Should I just pack my things and leave

Would I be a bigger man if I

Built a wall around your heart

And dared you to come in

I could lie to you

And say I didn't mean it

But hurts a funny thing, well it makes you stronger



(chorus)

All is nothing, in moderation

It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger

And I believe, I'm just plain tired



There's a funny way your lip shapes, when I know that you've been lying

And it touches me, it comforts me

I guess I should be satisfied, did you say you love me half the time

Well let's settle there, we can build from there

Build from there



Would you be happier if I, was only half the man I am

You could shadow me, and dare me to come in

I could lie to you and say I didn't mean it

But it really doesn't matter, when you stop to think about it



(chorus)



The end is coming she don't even feel it

It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy

And I believe, I'm just plain tired, I'm tired



Should I just pack my things and leave

Would I be a bigger man if I

Built a wall around your heart

And dared you to come in

I can lie to you

Say I didn't mean it

But hurts a funny thing, hurts a funny thing



(chorus)



The end is coming she don't even feel it

It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy

And I believe, I believe I'm just plain tired
