lyrics

You come home talking tough
High on your own time
And the time that you found to say “no”
A silent stare, a sad hello
You give it all away
But your act stays exactly the same:
You don’t want to lose

I’m sorry
You caught me sleeping off the best part of the day
In sorrow
We both know, it’s time we put our hearts away

We lost the best parts over innocuous things
You’ve been running scared, too cool to care
Too young to try but too old to walk away

(But you won’t say that to me)
No one said there’d be debts to pay
And traps to lay
And secrets to betray
They were half-meant and half-true
And half the time, they weren’t mine to say

You come back busted up
Strung out like “haven’t I suffered enough”
But you’ve used that line too many times so you stay
Your dress just falls away
And you stand with your hands up and say
“Hey, come on and make me sorry”
You want me thinking up the saddest words to say
“I won’t go”
But we both know
It’s time we put our best shoes on and start the day

We gave our chance up over innocuous things
You’ve been running scared, too cool to care
We have to pry these pieces apart, but not today
