True to form, your face is warm
Trying to hide what you’re waiting for
Off to war, I pace the floor
Trying to find the words I’m searching for
Picked you up, and we went out
It’s hard to define what to call us now
Just relax, and face the facts
When we get back, we’ll sort this all out
This off and on, has gone on too long
You have to decide just who’s side you’re on
She said you’re right, let’s go tonight
But I have to decline, this is getting so damn old
Went to the city, to make the same old mistakes
We met up and stayed out too late
Back at your front door, you know I had to turn away
Cut your arms, I left you crying in my wake

I wanna know, why you always do this to yourself
But never go all the way
These cuts and scars, tell me everything I need to know about you
I wanna know, why this isn’t working
It’s just not turning out how I thought
Letting you go, oh it’s not that simple
I can’t stop talking to you in my head
So find yourself a sharper blade
You hesitate until the first cut is made
And maybe then you realize
that you don’t want this after all
You take a walk to clear your head.
You end up back at the liquor store instead
Oh no
I wanna know, why this isn’t working
It’s just not turning out how I thought
Letting you go, oh it’s not that simple
I can’t stop talking to you in my head
Does it make you feel any safer?
If I’d offer to stick around
I’ll take this blood off of your hands
I know it’s not my place to say,
But you never really looked any good that way
Now you’re just some girl I knew in college
