How could she be   With a wretch like me   I'm a broken shell of a man that never was   I'd trade all that we've made   Just for one more date with destruction      I'm not being fair to you   I'm lyin' to myself   It hurts to see her face sittin' on my shelf   Beside the others      You're the cutest thing   I've seen   You're all a man could need   But I'm lifeless      I need to tell you no   I just can't let her go   'Cause I'm selfish   So selfish      I'm not being fair to you   I'm lyin' to myself   It hurts to see her face   Sittin' on my shelf   Beside the others      If I could tell you one thing   I think that you should know   I'm not afraid to love you   Just of letting go      If love and comfort   Are the same thing   Then why can't I ever find my way out?   I want to say we're strong   We can carry on      But I'm dragging you down   Ya I'm bringing you down   I'm dragging you down with me      I'm not being fair to you   I'm lyin' to myself   It hurts me to see her face   Sitting on my shelf      If I could tell you one thing   I think that you should know   I'm not afraid to love you   Just of letting go   Just of letting go   Just of letting go
