I Will (So Little Notice)

I’ll tell you what I am: jealous and paranoid.
Yeah, I have problems – but tell me, who doesn’t?
I know you’ve got yours, too – at least, I would if I were you.
And do you expect to survive after plunging headfirst
Into the iciest water? ‘Cause that’s how I feel.
I’m feeling a pulling inside. I’m sure that I can’t let this die, but

I took our photo down from my wall
And I put away your favorite party dress
The phone never rings because you never call
Everyone’s asking why I’ve been such a mess
And I don’t hold you in my head
‘Cause you don’t say the things you once said
And this is the best that I can do on such little notice from you.

So tell me who you are. I’m never sure. There’s 11 different people
for 11 different places and you’re uncomfortable.
But you know that I’ve got needs too
I can’t sacrifice it all for you
I’ll tell you this story, in this chapter you start changing. At least if you think
that the book shouldn’t be at its end. I know I can’t live like that.
I’m shaking all under my skin. I’m gripping to needles and pins.

I took our photo down from my wall
And I put away your favorite party dress
The phone never rings because you never call
Everyone’s asking why I’ve been such a mess
And I don’t hold you in my head
‘Cause you don’t say the things you once said
And this is the best that I can do on such little notice from you.

This is the best that I can do
And you say we still can be cool
I’m expecting nothing, that’s the truth
That’s the truth

I’ll put the photo frame back on my wall
And I will dress up for you if you ask me any day
And I will always make the call
And I’ll lie and tell everyone that I’m okay
And I’ll keep the broken parts inside
And once you’re gone for good, I can say I tried
And this is the best that I can do on such little notice from you.
