Lyrics

you said my experience is lacking
not up with my age
but i don't think you know what i've been through
with my porcelain feelings
and my heart on a stage
i don't think you know what you're putting me through
you said your tenure is longer
as a friend than a lover
and i should've listened to you the first night that we met
you called yourself a heartbreaker
bad communicator
and i should've listened to you the first night that we met
oh we're not even through and it hurts like this
it hurts like this
well i'm sick and tired
of you calling me friend
and then holding my hand on the boardwalk
oh i'm sick and tired
of you calling me friend
when the black in your eyes says you're falling
you said your tenure is longer
as a friend than a lover
oh and i should've listened to you the first night that we met
you called yourself a heartbreaker
bad communicator
and i should've listened to you the first night that we met
oh we're not even through and it hurts like this
it hurts like your name off my lips
the sentiment unspoken
bruising my lungs
just to hold in the love
that i so long to give you
if you weren't hell bent to
string me along
and then build up your walls
oh i'm letting go, letting go
of you
i'm letting go, letting go
of the future
i'm letting go, letting go, letting go
letting go
you said your tenure is longer
as a friend than a lover
we're not even through and it hurts like this
but i'm no longer afraid even in your midst
