Typical

How typical of us is this
I talk and you act like you're listening
And while I pour my heart out
You count your fingertips
Or stare down at your feet clearly disinterested
How poetic that we end this way
'Cause you and your closed mind weren't going to change
You were just a cynic never in it for the long haul
No I don't really mind it's find if we leave it all
'Cause it's hard to love someone who doesn't want to be loved, hard
To love someone who always keeps a guard up
Who's scared of letting you in
And it's hard to love someone who's too afraid to show love, hard
Who pulls away as soon as they feel too much
Who's scared off letting you in
My cards are down, now it's your turn
Oh, what a surprise that you can't find the right words
Or any words at all
We sit here in silence
Here's one thing I know I won't ever miss
'Cause it's hard to love someone who doesn't want to be loved, hard
To love someone who always keeps a guard up
Who's scared of letting you in
And it's hard to love someone who's too afraid to show love, hard
Who pulls away as soon as they feel too much
Who's scared off letting you in
I hope you find a way to open up
I feel sad for you
You said that you can't imagine getting close to anyone
It's just easier for you
It's hard
It's hard to love someone who doesn't wanna be loved
