I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)
You said you've been trying to hold on
For oh so long I've been thinking that you might like to tag along
And you came off so smooth with all your character flaws
And I'm thinking about you and every night I call
(Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way)
I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)
And you've been trying to pick me up like a ghost from the past
But you found that it's hard with your blood stained hands
Yeah it's real hard to get a firm grip
And every single minute that you think that your heart's too broke
Then your mind kicks in and screams let 'em go 'cause I'm torn asunder with no hope
And every night I fall
(Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way)
I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)
I just can't stand to see you smile
From a picture frame
And all I wanna do is touch your face
And take you far away
I'll take you far away
I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)
But I'm still standing here
Tell me why, and I'm still standing here
All this time I'm living a lie
And I'm still standing here
Tell me why
And I'm still standing here
And I'm heartstrong
Bye bye bye
