lyrics

you said it's too hard to keep up when we're both so far apart
my heart stretched a distance more than enough for the both of us
you couldn't see it in me like i saw myself in you
and i can't forget what could've been even if i wanted to

and maybe if you'd stayed a while, i wouldn't fake this smile
i'm so fucking stagnant, but your heart's like magnets

i'm worn down from your excuses, i put my last breath into this
now i'm alone back home
stuck in the middle of what i tried to leave behind me
the way things fell in place, everything but the timing
it all felt right and i guess i thought we wanted the same thing

i'll bend my back and let the sky fill my lungs
'cause i'm determined not to let this come undone
and the only friends that i keep are stuck in lonely beds
with lovers they don't need
i'll still hate the time zones and being left alone

i'm still stuck in the room that you brought me to my knees in
still tucked away is a photo of us in the frame you bought me
it's funny how it's not on show like all the things i buy to fill a void with
it's the same way that you could think i'm together
but inside i'm just breaking

you left your heart in a new state
i'll pack my life in this suitcase
tonight i'll make my getaway

i'll bend my back and let the sky fill my lungs
'cause i'm determined not to let this come undone
and the only friends that i keep are stuck in lonely beds
with lovers they don't need
i'll still hate the time zones and being left alone

and i swore to never love again, beaten and sore i let you in
why do i find things to love and let them kill me?
why do i find things to love and let them kill me?
either love me or leave me alone
either love me or leave me to roam
