When I'm Not With You

(album: Heart-Shaped Scar - 2001)

I lie to you to get away
Hide from myself to cure the pain
I stamp my feet
I cry out loud I keep you back
I force you out

When I'm not with you
I don't know your name
When I'm not with you
I'm a blank slate

I dig up flowers outside your house
I take your car
I ride around
I wonder if I ever loved you at all

When I'm not with you
I don't know your name
When I'm not with you
I'm a blank slate

When I'm not with you

The sun is too bright for my eyes
I am too fragile for your touch
I am damaged baby, I can't let you in
I am damaged baby, I can't let you in

When I'm not with you
I don't know your name
When I'm not with you
I'm a blank slate
