Stateside

I guess I'm staying stateside
I guess I'm staying here
I guess I'll keep my mouth shut
So no one disappears

You could come for the weekend
Play house for the day
Well, I'm just east of Atlanta
And it's way too far away

But it's a shame that you can't stay
'Cause you're running in circles, running away
It's a shame that you won't play
'Cause you know I can hear you calling my name
And it don't have to mean anything

I know they say I'm special, but please tell me again
Affirmations are the language that seep into my head
'Cause I love the pillowtalk
And I love the silent stares
And I promise you can trust me when I say there's nothing there

But it's a shame that you can't stay
'Cause you're running in circles, running away
It's a shame that you won't play
'Cause you know I can hear you calling my name
And it don't have to mean anything

Placing bets, doubling down
Pointed questions, testing my ground
Upperhand, we gamble it for fun
Just mess, just friends, just because

It's a shame that you can't stay
'Cause you're running in circles, running away
It's a shame that you won't play
'Cause you know I can hear you calling my name

And you know I don't bite in the day
And the sun will come up anyways
Oh, and it don't have to mean anything
