I have a nasty habit, leaving before I get left

You'll think my light's on yellow when I'm keeping you on read

Stonewall my emotions even when I wanna

Cry tears as wide as the ocean, but I don't

One fight, too many 3 A.M.s, I guess we're broken up

You're like, "This is just a conversation, baby, what the fuck?"

Now I'm screaming, "Goodbye," out like it means "I love you"

Internal warfare, it's what I always do, now I'm watching you

It's hitting different now, but I'm telling myself

I'm better on my own, I'm better on my own

WAIT! Don't go

It's all I've ever known, it's all I've ever known

WAIT! Don't go

Can I take it back now? Can we make it last? Oh

I'm codependent with my independence through and through

My September makes me stubborn, but it's fighting with my moon

When I said, "Just leave then," I was only fishin'

How stupid of me to think you wouldn't listen

Now you're packing up your t-shirts, but I want 'em in the drawer

Can't get myself to say, "Stay," before you're out the door

Been time under tension, it's blurring my vision

And so once again, my head and heart are at war

I'm better on my own, I'm better on my own

WAIT! Don't go

It's all I've ever known, it's all I've ever known

WAIT! Don't go

I'm screaming on the phone, I'm screaming on the phone

WAIT! Don't go

You're all I wanna know, you're all I wanna know

WAIT!

If I drive you away, will it cut like a blade?

Will it carry the same weight?

At the end of the day, I'm a girl, I'm afraid

Turn around, hit the brakes

Ooh, and now you got me

Screaming on the phone, I'm screaming on the phone (Can I take it back now? Can we make it last? Oh)

WAIT! Don't go

You're all I wanna know, you're all I wanna know

WAIT! Don't go

Can I take it back now? Can we make it last? Oh

Feelings ain't the facts, just the patterns of my past, so

WAIT!
