I never needed somebody to believe in

Now that you're around

I gotta leave somehow

A sense of security too deceiving

A little vulnerability and I'm freaking out

I'm getting colder with the older we get

Light a spark so we can all burn out

I fell apart and it's too hard to pretend

That I'm not lying through the doubt

And this time

I don't care what's right

Spent too many nights

Making sure that when I'm gone

I got something to leave behind

This half of my life

Is worth all the fighting

Take a shot of reality

Get your head right

Guess it gets hard to make decisions

When you get used to getting both

Never really needed to get better

You could just shorten your clothes

Sorry that I thought you're broken-ness

Was something I could fix

The one that got away

But I'm so glad that you did

Instead of hating what you're doing I just shoulda hated you

Guess it woulda gone a little different

If you had something to lose

I bet you damn well

And didn't just change your mind

You were lying when you said that

I wasn't wasting my time

Had to watch you blame it on devotion

Every time you crossed a line

And see it glittering like it's golden

Just to leave it all behind

When you don't need to watch your back

You won't believe what you can find in a night

How the hell is this meant to be

Made me fall apart so that you could be

The only piece I need

Bleeding from the heart

And I can't believe that it really

Worked out that way

I was already to late

Made a few too many scars and empty promises to say that any were a mistake

Guess it gets hard to make decisions

When you're used to getting both

Never really needed to get better

You could just shorten your clothes

Sorry that I thought you're broken-ness

Was something I could fix

The one that got away

But I'm so glad that you did

Instead of hating what you're doing I just shoulda hated you

Guess it woulda gone a little different

If you had something to lose

I bet you damn well

And didn't just change your mind

You were lying when you said that

I wasn't wasting my time
