Ready To Listen

Are you really that evil?
Do you want me to believe that?
I don’t think you are that bad
That you could do this for... splat
Is there really nothing there?
Nothing that prompted you to yell
At me in that long letter?
Do you realize that I just fell?

What are you trying to do?
Do you want me to go away?
Is that the point of this act?
To get me to run far away?
I still do care about you
Whether or not I should, it’s true
So what’re you trying to do?
I still will not give up on you

All the time I wasted here
Waiting for you to come back ‘round
It doesn’t matter, I’m here
Still for you when you come back ‘round
Just don’t make me think you’re mean
Know I need you to be there still
And I don’t know just what for
But here I am, standing here still
Ready to listen

I stand here still
Ready to listen

(standing here still)

I’m ready to listen

Don’t run from me
I’m ready to listen

I stand here still
Behind in your shadow
Always there
Ready to listen
