Stick Around

Said that he'd be mine forever
So I let him touch me
In a way you'd touch someone forever
But he never stuck around
And now I'm left tracing his fingers on my skin
I'm wondering if he meant it

And I'll hold this shit forever
Carry it around with me
Takin' deep breaths in summer weather
Cause I know it sticks around
And now I'm left tracin my skin
I'm wondering if there will even be a next

And sometimes when the days get hard
I ache for what I had not long ago
But I'm not missing you
Just the feelings until I grow
Just thought that I should let you know

I guess that I just can't believe
That you would do that to me with such ease
I guess I miss who you were
Before we were a we
Now you can keep it

I don't want to trust again now
Scared of people but I owe it to myself to trust them somehow
And yet now you stick around
This city's mine so tell me why from time to time
I still see your face in the lights

Wish you'd let go of my life once you'd already dropped my hand
But no, your grip stayed pretty tight around my thighs & waistband
Had your hands over my mouth while telling all our friends
How much you wanted out

Yet sometimes when the nights get hard
I ache for what I had not long ago
But still not missing you
Which you definitely know

Sick of being made to feel I was a kid and didn't know
What it felt like to be loved
In a place I couldn't grow

When it comes to haunting me
You're trying to stick around
But it's too late now

Proved you can commit
Just when you're getting something out of it
Oh, lord

Said he'd be around forever
So I naturally believed that he would be around forever
And right there he pulled away
I'm sick of spending all my days
Thinking about someone who wasn't worth the pain
