And I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
And I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heart strong

But you said, "You've been trying to hold on"
For oh so long and I've been thinking that you might like to tag along
But you came off so smooth with all your character flaws
And I'm been thinking about you and every night I call
Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way

And I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
And I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heart strong, yeah I'm heart strong

And you've been trying to pick me up like a ghost from the past
But you found that it's hard with your blood stained hands
Yeah, it's real hard to get a firm grip
And every single minute that you think that your heart's too broke
Then your mind kicks in and screams let 'em go
'Cause I'm torn asunder with no hope and every night I fall
Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way

Now I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
And I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heart strong, yeah I'm heart strong

I just can't stand to see you smile
From a picture frame
And all I wanna do is touch your face
And take you far away, oh no no
Take you far away

And I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone

And I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
But you swear that you still care
And I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heart strong

And I'm still standing here but tell me why
And I'm still standing here all this time I'm living a lie
And I'm still standing here tell me why
And I'm still standing here but I'm heart strong
