Jack Ingram - In the Corner lyrics

I had so much to give you But you threw it all away So I hole up in this corner And act like I've nothing to say Knowing that as soon as you ask me If there's something wrong I might blow up any minute You'll say "I knew it all along Yeah, he's just another young cynic We get them all the time If he just knew how to channel All that anger he'd be fine". So I sit with all these wishes and dreams dying on the vine Knowing I could make you happy for a minute with a lie But soon you'd see right through me And like the rest I'd blow away Cause I wasn't what you wanted I don't make you feel okay You'd say "if he just had kept some edge. Man he looks so polished now To bad i rememeber one time, Should have heard the things he'd said, And it all seemed so reckless And I felt just like a kid. Now he makes me nervous. I think I'll look somewhere else instead." So I sit here in this corner So afraid to make a move. If I start to look embarra**ed It's because I know you knew All the bravery, all the anger Was just covering up the fear That I'd end up in some corner. Now I sit here.
