This Is Not Here

Seems like I just learned to care 

I know that you will but don't you dare 

Point your stare 

In my direction, the inflection in your voice says 

"things aren't working out" 

But I've got some doubt... 

Almost is a dirty word when your 17 

Regret can kill you when you turn 20 

Fall asleep in separate rooms 

Things are changing fast but you left me too soon 

To look in my direction, the inflection 

In my voice says, "let's try and work it out" 

But I've got some doubt 

But I can't wait that long to hear what happens next 

And it's been so long since I've been put to the test
