I'm Not Ready Lyrics
There you are, going nowhere
There you go, keeping me here.
Get what you want, whatever you ask of me..
And I see what you are thinking of me.
There you go, taking me down
Do it again; will put you to shame.
All that I am is all that you take from me.
And I see what you are thinking of me.
Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame...
How do you dare to know me?
How do you dare to feel me?
How do you dare to see me?
Why do I leave myself open?
I'm not ready...
There you go, keeping me here.
Get what you want, whatever you ask of me..
And I see what you are thinking of me.
Do it again; will put you to shame.
All that I am is all that you take from me.
And I see what you are thinking of me.
Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame...
How do you dare to feel me?
How do you dare to see me?
Why do I leave myself open?
I'm not ready...

This is a beautiful song. I love the simplicity of the acoustic guitar combined with the rich sound of the cello. The vocalist has a sweet voice, and has very good control of her instrument. I interpret the song to be about an unhealthy relationship in which one feels trapped, and she isn't sure why she allows herself to be treated this way.
