Good Dog

I have been waiting by the window in the dark
Keeping quiet sat listening for your car
A quiet panic that you're never coming home
Don't like who you make me
But I know it's not your fault

Am I better off alone
Give you up and crawl back home
Instead of waiting at your door
Like a good dog that you don't want
Sit on the couch and cry it off
Convince myself it's what I want
It's what I want

Better to call it if I know it's gonna go
Don't want you to hate me when I get to be too much
I don't want to be angry when you did nothing wrong
Baring teeth just out of fear
To scare you off

Am I better off alone
Give you up and crawl back home
Instead of waiting at your door
Like a good dog that you don't want
Sit on the curb and cry it off
Convince myself it's what I want
It's what I want

And I know you think I'm some designer breed
But I'm just a rescue you'd find on the street
I been scratching at the door and making myself bleed

Cuz everybody leaves
Everybody leaves

Think I'm better off alone
Giving up and going home
Instead of waiting at your door
A stupid dog that never learns
Get on the phone and call my mom
Let her tell me I fucked up
That I was wrong

What I want's a change of heart
Be strong enough to bear it all
Not be so tortured by my thoughts
Bout what can happen while you're gone
What I want is you back home
Wrapped up in my arms
That's what I want
