Don't let me go

I want to put a stop to all and there is a reason.
Please listen to every word I am going to say.
This situation makes me feel traped, like I'm in prison,
But at the end, if you still want me to,  I'll stay.

At first you used to follow me into different locations
And you stood there, smiling and waiting for a sign.
I was too scared that I won't meet your expectations,
But after all, I don't even meet mine.

You came up with the right words to say
When you tried to ask me on a date,
But maybe you're just another actress in a play
Who talks about true love and fate.

Every time you get closer, I pull away.
I try to not to make a fool out of myself,
Cause I know you'll leave me one day
And our story'll be getting dust on the shelf.

You don't know why I'm being so insecure
And why I say I'm not worthy of your attention.
Odly enough , I think it makes you want me even more
And my desire and my reason create a tension.

Because I love when you curl your hair and bite your lips
And how a compliment makes your cheeks turn red.
I love when the music makes you move your hips,
But maybe I should just love you instead...

Then I remember my love is a poison
who feels like a drug
You lie to your doctor to get a prescription.
When you pull me in that long tight hug
I am pretty sure what you have is an addiction.

I'm not here to tell you how you feel is wrong,
Cause baby I am wrong on so many different levels.
But the reason I am writing you this song
Is so that you may understand my devils.

Sometimes when you are near it gets harder for me to speak.
I'm scared you'll realise that I'm a huge pile of mess.
The fact that I can't have you makes me sick,
Because I think you look too perfect in that dress.

In the end, my desire fades in the shadows of your needs
And I must protect you in every way that I can.
I'm broken,  I'm empty and I've had my share of nasty deeds,
So you have to understand that I'm not your man. 

Maybe it took me to much to build up courage and I'm late
Cause your heart is already settled on mine.
I think I whish you could turn all that love into hate.
It may be the only way you'll stay whole and you'll stay fine. 

You are the important one,  so it is entirely up to you to choose.
You can tell me just one word and you'll see me go away,
Walk streight to a bar to numb my sorrows in booze,
But until the last moments I'll still hope you'll make me stay.
