For Reasons
I haven't felt this way since I lost my first love
It's the price that we pay for the bright shiny stuff
Five years ago I thought it'd never let up
And I wrote a whole album and it fits you like a glove
I let all my friends go 'cause you felt like enough
But I knew that I was building
A glass house for us
If I text you I love you
And you don't say it back
Is your plan to let me realize
That my cards have been stacked
It's so much easier
When you can blame the alcohol
But you finally stopped drinking
And it's not letting up at all
The pattern's repeating
I'm running out of answers
I've been thinking 'bout the fantasy
I created and planned tor
Some people come forever, and others come for reasons
If we were meant to be together, it wouldn't change with the season
How can you stop loving in less than a week
How can memories be wiped away like a tear on a cheek
There were so many moments
When I felt it wasn't right
But I held onto your body because it got me through the night
We were both here a week ago
We made love in this house
What scared you away
What gave you an out
It doesn't make sense
People don't change that quickly
I deserve an explanation
Because it feels like you betrayed me
It's so much easier
When you can blame the alcohol
But you finally stopped drinking
And it's not letting up at all
The pattern's repeating
I'm running out of answers
I've been thinking 'bout the fantasy
I created and planned for
Some people come forever, and others come for reasons
If we were meant to be together, it wouldn't change with the season
I texted your family
I packed up their presents
Leave them under the tree
Let them know that I meant it
That I loved their son
And I tried so hard to
Make him feel better
I tried to heal his big bruise
But I deserve a Sunday
Without watching the door
Wondering if there will be kisses
When his bag hits the floor
It's the price that we pay for the bright shiny stuff
Five years ago I thought it'd never let up
And I wrote a whole album and it fits you like a glove
I let all my friends go 'cause you felt like enough
But I knew that I was building
A glass house for us
If I text you I love you
And you don't say it back
Is your plan to let me realize
That my cards have been stacked
It's so much easier
When you can blame the alcohol
But you finally stopped drinking
And it's not letting up at all
The pattern's repeating
I'm running out of answers
I've been thinking 'bout the fantasy
I created and planned tor
Some people come forever, and others come for reasons
If we were meant to be together, it wouldn't change with the season
How can you stop loving in less than a week
How can memories be wiped away like a tear on a cheek
There were so many moments
When I felt it wasn't right
But I held onto your body because it got me through the night

But I deserve a Sunday
Without watching the door
Wondering if there will be kisses
When his bag hits the floor
