Here Comes a Walking Fire

Waste away waiting on you
It's a shame...
I'd waste my time on you
If you'd want me to
I fall for it every time...

Reach out!
Can't you notice you're not the only one who's strung out?
(The only one who's filled with doubts?)
If you'd just take me as I am, I'd pull us out of this haze
Put down your chemistry set
Just stay awake!

I would do anything if I felt like you would stay
But with the door there
Would you just turn around and just walk away?

I never thought I would be here
I'm lower than I've been before
As I watch you fade out...
I'm just waiting for you to fill the holes you've formed

I wish I knew what you were thinking
Have you noticed or can you see anything at all?
Every time you start to walk away
You tune out all those who stand by you
What happens when no one's left?
You left your garbage inside my car, bitch
And I'll never let you live that down
Your lungs feel so shallow now
You can't accept that this is all we're capable of

With the lies you sold
Scored with a tongue like the edge of a sword

I'd be lying if I said this was ideal
I just keep opening the wounds instead of letting any heal
I've never asked the question, "is this really what I need?"
But have I learned my lesson, that my time is not cheap?

Waiting for something to give (wasting my time)
Seeing myself...
I guess that I'm okay with this deprivation
Let's count every flaw
(Is this enough?)
Keep stumbling on a list that's so long
(Just show me some love. Is this not enough?)
We could've been better than this
(Just show me some love!)
Was it all a mistake to think this pattern could break?
(Just go I've had enough!)

I'm sorry for not being someone worth fighting for
I've never felt so blind
Are you too short sighted to see this through?
If this is you just being honest then...
Forgive me for feeling the exit wounds
