I hold your picture in my hand,
Clutch it tight against my chest.
It’s the only way I see you and I really need to.

I know that you don’t understand.
You think that I am like the rest,
But I don’t think they really love you the way that I do.

Don’t be frightened if you here this song.
I would never hurt you.
I know better than to try to win you over.
I don’t deserve you.

So much it makes me cry,
When I think that you might not be well.
If there is anything that I,
Can ever do for you then tell me ’cause I’ll do anything for you.

Behind my eyes, sweet sorrow lies.
Alone for lack of compromise.
And if you die, then so will I.
Alone in all the tears I’ve cried.

Now I wish I could say that I’m worthy of you,
‘Cause I cry everyday and it’s all I can do,
Not to end it right now to escape all the pain that I feel.
It doesn’t even feel real anymore.

Behind my eyes, sweet sorrow lies.
Alone for lack of compromise.
And if you die, then so will I.
Alone in all the tears I’ve cried.
