Something That You're Not

We've been going so long in circles

That I'm dizzy and confused

I can't help the way I love you

You can't help it that you're you

You got problems I relate to

I'm no therapist, I know

There's an emptiness inside you

But that means there's room to grow

I keep saying that I'm only trying to help

But it feels like I'm just talking to myself

'Cause birds don't learn to fly

They just eventually spread their wings

I think it's about time that I stop asking you to change

I can only show the door

You've gotta be the one to walk

I already knew, but I guess that I forgot

You can't make somеbody something that they're not

Wеll, I brought you up to momma

And she said, "Just give it time"

It's the same ride that we're on

Just different places in the line

And you only have two choices

To be patient or just go

And I wanna stick around to find out

Where the story goes

I keep saying that I'm only trying to help

But it feels like I'm just talking to myself

Pretty pictures keep on falling off your walls

I can't blame you for the things that aren't your fault

'Cause birds don't learn to fly

They just eventually spread their wings

I think it's about time that I stop asking you to change

I can only show the door

You've gotta be the one to walk

I already knew, but I guess that I forgot

You can't make somebody something that they're not

'Cause birds don't learn to fly

They just eventually spread their wings

I think it's about time that I stop asking you to change

I can only show the door

You've gotta be the one to walk

I already knew, but I guess that I forgot

You can't make somebody something that they're not
