The One Who Left

Might be over the phone
Or over a text
That's the way it always ends
With saying that we should just be friends
Then never see you again

Give it a year
Or give it a week
I'm in and then out of someone's league
They go and they break me like a lease
It's getting hard to believe
When everyone says

It's not you, it's me
Ain't it funny how history repeats
They get closure, I keep my losing streak
They'll say we're done
But I wanna be the one who

Leaves you crying in your car
I want you to resent me
I wanna make it tempting
To text me at a bar
Think of me in the dark
I wanna haunt your bed sheets
When you're with someone else
See me instead
I wanna never ever leave your head
Be the one who leaves it all unsaid
Yeah I know it hasn't happened yet
But I wanna be the one who left

You'll have me blocked
On every account
But secretly hope i'll still reach out
Cause i left the mess you're cleaning now
I'll let you down, I'll tell you how

It's not you, it's me
But ain't it funny how history repeats
Cuz they get closure I keep my losing streak
They'll say we're done
But I wanna be the one who

Leaves you crying in your car
I want you to resent me
I wanna make it tempting
To text me at a bar
Think of me in the dark
I wanna haunt your bed sheets
When you're with someone else
See me instead
I wanna never ever leave your head
Be the one who leaves it all unsaid
Yeah I know it hasn't happened yet
But I wanna be the one who

Left you at the restaurant
Left you wondering what went wrong
Let you down and led you on
Wanna be the one
I just wanna be the one who
Made you think that this could last
Made you cry and get attached
Broke it off, broke you in half
Wanna be the one
I just wanna be the one who left
