i thought it was "please don't wait for me to be like you/cause i'm not you", which i LOVE. but after hearing live versions of the song, i definitely think it is "up here". that lyric maybe refers to high standards of the other person.
also, the first 'chorus' goes:
'cause i won't wait around
for the grass to grow back now
i won't wait around
for your _____ to open, let me inside now
i'm not sure what the blank is... it sounds like it ends with a "s" when you listen to the live versions (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WempYPPsaWc). maybe "eyes"? that'd make sense...
"we knew to plainly walk away" should be "when you could plainly walk away", which definitely gives the song a different tone.
also, i agree with ruffianangelina about the ending lyrics. watch the live versions. that makes this song just that much better.
