You know the way to keep me dead
Your past can't follow if you turn and shut me out
But in the middle of the night
I swear I hear your voice in every corner now
I keep repeating my old thoughts
Retwisting my old knots hoping
You'll be there to rescue me
I should know better by now but
There's something about the way you
Look at me
It's nothing personal if you can't take the blame
I'm no better when I'm
Face to face with you
And I tried my hardest to make sense
But you still won't change
I know better than to stay
Baby, I'ma be honest
I'm in perfect disarray
Used to being an option
Never questioned history until you
Now I'm face to face with you
You know the way to keep me at your own command
Just tie me to your latest obsession
And if you know the words that echo in my head
Just save your breath for someone else, cuz
I keep repeating my old thoughts
Retwisting my old knots hoping
You'll be there to rescue me
You keep repeating the pattern
So what does it matter if the
Past is all we'll be
It's nothing personal if you can't take the blame
I'm no better when I'm
Face to face with you
And I tried my hardest to make sense
But you still won't change
I know better than to stay
Baby, I'ma be honest
I'm in perfect disarray
Used to being an option
Never questioned history until you
Now I'm face to face with you
I can feel your heart call out to mine
Now I'm face to face with you
(Oh, if you know you've had enough
Just let me know or let me go
Don't keep me waiting in your wings)
