I'm not going to pick you up

This is the first song i posted here so i hope you like it (:

You don't know that you're falling,
Because you haven't hit the ground,
You don't know who you're calling,
Because you haven't looked around,
You don't know if your good enough,
Because your too busy watching them,
You don't know how to play it rough,
Because your too busy breathing in.

I'm not going to pick you up,
I'm not going to let you go,
I'm not going to tell you its too tough,
Or to play your life slow,
I'm not going to write you a love song,
I'm not going to trust you with my heart,
I'm not going to tell you right from wrong,
Because you've known that all from the start.

I could tell you theres more to life,
Than what you're doing now,
I could tell you it'll get better in time,
That it always does somehow,
But I'm not going to tell you everything,
I only heard from someone else,
But I guess I'll tell you a few things,
I learned all by myself.

Lifes not about trashing your world,
And its not about hiding the truth,
From your lovely wife and three little girls,
But what should they expect from you?,
Theres more to life than running,
But theres more than staying here,
You've just got to live it honey,
Or else you'll lose all those years.

I'm not going to pick you up,
I'm not going to let you go,
I'm not going to tell you its too tough,
Or to play your life slow,
I'm not going to write you a love song,
I'm not going to trust you with my heart,
I'm not going to tell you right from wrong,
Because you've known that all from the start.

And truth be told I'm not ready to go,
I'm not ready to tell you what you need to know,
I'm not ready to tell you to face your fears,
But I should cause after all these years,
No one will say it sooner.
No one will say it sooner.
No one will say it to your face,
You have to pick up all the waste,
That you've caused...
Then you can be done.

I'm not going to pick you up,
I'm not going to let you go,
I'm not going to tell you its too tough,
Or to play your life slow,
I'm not going to write you a love song,
I'm not going to trust you with my heart,
I'm not going to tell you right from wrong,
Because you've known that all from the start.
