Strum
D-DU-UDU
 The  bravest thing I've  ever done
 Was  to run away and  hide
 But  not this  time, not this  time
 And  the weakest  thing I've ever done
 Was  to stay right by your  side
 Just  like  this time and every  time
 I  couldn't tell you I was  happy you were  gone
 So  I lied and said that I  missed you when  we were apart
 I  couldn't tell you so I had  to lead you  on
 But  I didn't mean  to break your heart.
 And  if I always seemed  distracted,
 Like  my mind is somewhere  else
 That's  because it's true,  yes it's true
 It's  the stupid pride  that makes me feel
 Like  I have to follow  through
 Even  half-assedly,  loving  you
 Why  must I always  speak in terms  of cowardice?
 When  I guess I should have just come out and told
 You  right from the start
 Why  must I always  tell you all  I want is this?
 I  guess cause I didn't  want to break  your  heart.
 And  you said
 What'd  you think I that I was gonna do?
 Curl  up and die just because of you?
 I'm  not that weak, you know
 What'd  you think that I was gonna do?
 Try  to make you love me as much as I love you?
 How  could you be so low?
 You  arrogant man,
 What  do you think that I  am?
 My  heart will be fine
 Just  stop wasting my  time
 And  now I know that you  will be okay
 And  that I got what  I want
 And  that's  rid of you
 Good-bye
 And  its not cause I'll  be missing you
 That  makes me fall  apart
 It's  just that I didn't  mean to break
 No,  I didn't mean to  break
 No,  I didn't mean  to break
 Your  heart
 Your  heart
