's just stuff I have to do And the last thing you need is more hurt And I'm probably the last guy on earth That needs to tell you anything that seems so old I know I appear to be cold But girl I'd never play around with a fragile heart I know it's been broken but I'll take all the parts And put em back together even if it takes forever What does that mean when you say that I'll never Succeed? What does that mean? Never is forever that forever recedes So it's the same I'm not the one to blame Take my hand I promise I can be the change You've been trying to find But I can't right now so don't become blind To everything and everyone you come across I'll be gone for awhile so I'll take it as my loss I have hope but I wish it were faith You can have as much as you can take Just please make haste And keep in mind the goals I'm pursuing And no, I don't know exactly what I'm doing But it's important that somebody have drive Because somebody has to make this lifestyle survive BOM, no MOB I'm trying to hold and repair what's Broken Over Me I won't be selfish and stay here for you This world is much bigger than two

The song is a monologue talking to a girl.
The indecisive lyrics that bounce back and forth between “yes” and “no” are too demonstrate how difficult the decision is.
The beat samples Coldplay’s “U.F.O.” from their album Mylo Xyloto.
