lyrics

You're leaving

You get close, you pull away
You work your way in but you never stay
I'm so frustrated
My heart is jaded
This back and forth has gotta stop some day

You're with me, now you're with him
I want you for myself, I just can't win
I gave up everything
Now you want nothing
My hope is fading as my chances are slim

Don't play the victim with me
You know damn well that we're both guilty
Things are not what they appear
It's hard to let go but we can't stay here

I broke your heart, you've broken mine
It seems like lately we fight all of the time
You explode with passion
I feel the reaction
This back and forth, I think I'm losing my mind

At long last, you've made me see
That you can't live your life because of me
You feel like a felon
Locked in a prison
Now you can't take it and you need to be free, yeah!

You're out to settle the score
It feels like we have been here before
Things are not what they appear
It's hard to let go but we can't stay here

Don't play the victim with me
You know damn well that we're both guilty
Things are not what they appear
It's hard to let go but we can't stay here

You're leaving

You're leaving, don't go
You're leaving, please don't go
You're leaving, please don't go
Leaving
