**[Intro]**
Oh—whoa
Yeah
Whoa
---
**[Verse 1]**
I wish you’d slow down, say it to me straight
I wish you’d turn around, or just walk away
I wish you’d stop pretending this is fate
I wish you’d take your silence someplace safe
Where’d you go? I need to know
Don’t leave me freezing in the afterglow
Soul on sale, soul on loan
Say it once before it gets old
Who knows now? I don’t know
Everything’s fine, everything’s controlled
We don’t need a reason
You are the reason
I don’t feel this anymore
---
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Body on the floor
Something’s at the door
Blood in the sink
Can’t ignore
I don’t want the truth
I don’t want the war
I don’t want you coming back
Just to want me more
---
**[Chorus]**
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d leave and let me be
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d walk—just not with me
Where’d you go? I wanna know
Don’t leave me stranded in the cold
Soul for sale, soul for sale
Say it quick, it’s getting old
Who’d we tell? I don’t know
Everything’s fine, under control
---
**[Verse 2]**
Walk away
I don’t wanna talk today
I can’t do this every day
I don’t wanna lose my brain
I don’t wanna go insane
But the second that you speak to me
Is the second I hesitate
Is the second I replay
Every word you never say
---
**[Pre-Chorus 2]**
I keep the lights low
I keep my guard high
I keep telling myself
This is the last time
---
**[Chorus]**
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d leave and let me be
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d walk—just not with me
Where’d you go? I wanna know
Don’t leave me stranded, don’t come home
Soul for sale, soul for sale
Say it once, it’s getting old
Who’d we tell? I don’t know
Everything’s fine, under control
---
**[Outro]**
Oh—
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d leave and let me be
I wish you’d stop and talk to me
I wish you’d walk—
Just not with me
