Boy

(albüm: The Closest Thing To Home - 2017)

It's dawn when you are darkest
I wait for the light
And I have tried my hardest
But nothing that I do makes you shine

When you're here, you are not here
I wonder where it is your mind goes
'Cause it's quiet
Oh, but I can't feel the silence anymore

Don't I deserve feeling like I'm worth someone who gives a damn?
I don't know why I've given all my time to a boy who won't be a man

I swore up and down that I could, but now I'm not sure that I can
'Cause a person has a limit of just how much indifference they'll stand

Don't I deserve feeling like I'm worth someone who gives a damn?
I don't know why I'm wasting all my time on a boy who won't be a man

I have loved, I do love
And surely I'll just keep on loving you
But now it's from a distance
This apathy is something I can't do

'Cause I deserve knowing that I'm worth someone who gives a damn
And I've had enough of giving all my love to a boy who won't be a man
To a boy who won't be a man
You're a boy, and I need a man
