sounds close. Catchy song - hopefully it'll do well
for the band. Comments & corrections welcome.

Lyrics: (courtesy of http://blondeinside.diaryland.com/index.html)
Every breath you t-
As if I'd sing that song to you, you probably think you deserve it at the present time
But if only you knew how you treated me when we were together then you might understand
Remember the time you made me wait for a month cos you had exams which I was cool about but
then the night you finished you barred me from all your plans and you went out with other people
Now I'll always give you the benefit of the doubt and I think there's enough natural maturity
floating around for the tension release time to even out between two people like you and me
But I've been thinking and since we broke up I realised things were mostly in your favour and
a normal person wouldn't put up with this but for some stupid reason I don't wanna move on
Now I'm stuck in a moment
It's bad for my health
Now I'm gone
If I don't emancipate myself
Now I gotta say that all of this is coming down on me like a tonne of bricks at this present
time, I don't have much cash, I'm trying to figure out the rest of my life
But I think a lot of people would agree that all you need is a feeling of freedom and when
you're in emotional limbo, everything you do is filtered through that
Now I don't wanna punish or make you unhappy or jealous in any way or hurt you because
ultimately in time it's your own choice who you surround yourself with, and I'm responsible
for those things too
And I've treated people badly at times in relationships and maybe what you're doing is some
kind of payback for all those past lives, but that also doesn't change the fact that
Now I'm stuck in a moment
It's bad for my health
Now I'm gone
If I don't emancipate myself
There's no spirit to find me
And no wishing well
Well I'm gone
If I don't emancipate myself
So whatcha gonna do now
You gonna keep me hanging on
You gonna keep me hanging on
You gonna keep me hanging on
You gonna keep me hanging on
You gonna keep me hanging on
'Cos I have a feeling it's all in my own mind and if i have anything to do with it knowing
me I enjoy putting mself through this kind of trauma to a degree, how 'bout you? Thought so
Maybe you shouldn't call me anymore because I need some time to get to know myself again, and
once again we say it's final then I'm gonna miss you even more, even the most, yeah,
But I don't want you to know that I'm missing you yeah let's establish even more communication
breakdown and wonder why later on all the honesty and trust is gone between us
Now I'm stuck in a moment
It's bad for my health
Well I'm gone
If I don't emancipate myself
There's no spirit to find me
And no wishing well
Well I'm gone
If I don't emancipate myself
