The Real You - Dear Mom and Dad

Tonight I fall asleep under starless skies
Praying my life won't pass me by
Yet I love to be stuck in this moment
Forever

This time I want to be the one who said "I told you so"

Reality scares me to death
I'm afraid to close my eyes
Running out of places to hide, oh I tried
Waiting for the sun to sink into the ocean

Please don't make me say this again

This time I want to be the one who said "I told you so"
It doesn't have to end this way
Running from the only home I've ever known

Please don't make me say this again
Even though I could (even though I could)
You ran just like I knew you would
And if this makes you happy I'll go without another word
I'll spare you the hurt, oh

This time I want to be the one who said "I told you so"
It doesn't have to end this way
Running from the only home I've ever known

Reality scares me to death (You made me leave)
I'm afraid to close my eyes (Why don't you love me?)
Running out of places to hide, oh I tried (I tried)
