I'm sitting by my phone again waiting for your name to light up my screen, checking every message twice hoping it ain’t the same old thing.
this time will you really mean what you say? No it's the same old story playing on repeat, and I'm getting tired of this broken melody. You say you love me when I'm walking away but when I stay you barely look my way.
You give me just enough to keep me hanging on but never enough to feel like I belong. In your world I'm always second place to everything else that takes up your space.
I’m writing paragraphs while you send back hearts, pouring out my soul while you're playing your part.
You act like someone who does care but never really tries leaving me in despair.
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
If it’s lust instead of love fly far away like a dove.
If it’s pain and for you to stay, then just leave it’ll be okay.
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
Boy I can see the truth behind your lies that you're comfortable with me doing all the work while you sit back for the ride.
You watch me slowly hurt from giving everything and getting nothing back, wondering what it is that I still lack.
Do I make you want to fight so what we have is not dead? No, you let me do all the heavy lifting while you're somewhere else in your head. Constantly drifting through your life like I'm not even there, like all my love just disappears into the air.
I remember when you used to call me first, when talking to me wasn't just another thirst. You only had to quench it when you were bored at night, now I'm lucky if I get you a minute in your sight.
Having your attention feels like scraps I have to beg for, always asking myself what I keep fighting for. You’ve already checked out but won't let me go, keeping me in a game of limbo.
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
If it’s lust instead of love fly far away like a dove.
If it’s pain and for you to stay, then just leave it’ll be okay.
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
Boy, you know I'll always be here waiting by the door for you to finally want me like you did before.
that version is gone and I don't think he's coming back while I'm running out of ways to fill the gaps. Wheres the line between what you promise and what you actually do, between the person that I fell in love with and you?
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
If it’s lust instead of love fly far away like a dove.
If it’s pain and for you to stay, then just leave it’ll be okay.
If it’s goodbye you hate to say, then just go and don’t look back my way.
