Hit-And-Run

Just say the word you know I'd change
Every single part of my endless DNA
Every strand the back of my hand
I hope you know I take back what I said
I was sixteen
How could you possibly believe
You could talk to me
And your words they wouldn't
Sweep me off my feet
How could you believe
Then leave

A friendly flirt that's all you were
My best friend called me crazy
Said you talked like that with her
And I hope that you know
I know it's my fault
That I caught feelings every time you called
But two AM is really not the time to call
You know I wish I
Had a reason to stop by
Sometimes I'm terrified
We might not again say hi
And you'll forget the times you crossed the line
The feelings that you amplified
Every single night
Oh how I miss the high
I'm a hopeless romantic I know
But you're helpless selfish
Maybe I should've known
This was always meant to melt right with the snow
Just take me home
I should've known
You'd always have the first go at the puppet shows
The hammer throws
The "let it go's"
You and I both know your game show
Was my deathblow
You'll say sorry and I'll have it
I'm bad a breaking old habits
I thought you knew this
Thought you were better than this

Sixteen and scared
Of the motion heavy love affair
Rollercoaster rides up stream
Midnight drives and endless screams
Sixteen and used
The game so rigged I really thought I loved you
I thought I loved you
Somewhere in that man I know
Is a better one, a better one
Somewhere I believe underneath
That evil man is just someone's son
And he is trying but he's not trying hard enough
Shotgun, you've won
I should've been ready for the hit-and-run

Riddle me this
What the fuck did I miss
You know damn well that everyone's a witness
For all the shit you pulled
When my nights got cold
And when you left town we talked about you
And it made me sick I had to leave the room
But it's the holiday season now and
I can't take get my mind off you
And here at seventeen
I'm still trying to believe
That even the strongest part of me
Can learn to get over you
And I hope you find a way someday
To give me back the tears i cried everyday
And don't you dare look me in my face
And confess someday

Sixteen and scared
Of the loaded gun cruel love affair
You can blame my endless needs
But you and I know it wasn't me
Sixteen and bruised by the man
I gave my whole life to
I fucking loved you

Somewhere in that man I know
Is a better one, a better one
Somewhere I believe underneath
That evil man is just someone's son
And he is trying but he'll never try to try hard enough
Shotgun, you've won
I never was ready for the hit-and-run

(Ah ah ah ah)
(Ah ah ah ah)

It's been about eleven months
I haven't heard a thing from you
And I know that's what I told you to do
I guess i'm just wishing you could find it in you
To help me forgive you
And here in a couple weeks
I'll be turning eighteen
Wish I could find it in me
To let it be
And I'll look back on every single
Fucking thing you said
Wish you had made clearer what you meant
I bet you think that i'll forget

Sixteen and scared of the
Motion heavy love affair

Sixteen and scared of the
Calculated killer behind the love affair
(Two AM tryna fall asleep but it's hard to sleep under bloody sheets)
Eighteen still bruised
By the heart-stopping wave of you
Somewhere deep inside of you is
Someone someone
Somewhere now I still believe is
Someone who won't make me feel so dumb
And he is trying
But he'll never ever ever try hard enough
I should've been ready for the hit-and-run

(Ah ah ah ah)

Oh, I should've been ready for the loaded gun

(Ah ah ah ah)

I should've been ready for the hit-and-run
