Let me climb under your skin or let me in..

I want to come in, Mister, you know I'd hang on every word.
I'd wrap around you, but you've surrounded yourself in thorns,
now I can't touch you without bleeding.
You say that I'm the one walking away, always running away from love,
yet I'm here still, silently bursting, like a bubble, I'm so fragile,
waiting for the word, but there are no words left in you,
if you only knew
how easy it'd be just to fight for me.
You say you're fighting, that you're tired of doing this dance,
stepping toward me as I pull away,
but I've been pulling you back
to me all this time and you've been turning your head,
and I can't have your eyes
so close to mine if they won't look at me.
They say a miracle starts with the beat of a heart
but mine has beat itself out waiting for one love to take it in.
You've been sleeping, I've been dreaming of you, of the you you used to be when you used to look at me like I was all there was,
but somewhere along that line you lost it, that interest, didn't you?
HEY Mister, you know everything changes, before I knew what had been done,
before you knew it I'd come undone,
now, is there anything left to do?
I can't spend another minute convincing myself you love me
when my heart's convinced you don't want me,
that you've wanted someone else all along.
Still, I can't let go of what I know,
the way you used to hold me and never wanted me to go,
you said you never would, now that's all you can do for me,
either be my king or let me leave...
But you're letting me go so easily.
