I know it's not like me to stay in any one place
could it be the promise of a new trade or the potential
that has me so restrained?
no I won't
I find it so hard to leave this, though I know you won't change
why do I open my heart to the way that you speak
and the way you give?
I'm afraid to say it's been working
I don't like the way you talk to me like
I don't mind the way you talk to me like
am I just an opportunist waiting for the payoff?
or have I been manipulated led along by a fake carrot?
this is not the way you move me
you blame the wood for bending the nail despite the hammer in your hand
this is not the way you move me
