Lost Cause

I'd still stalk you on the Internet
Wondering what it'd be like
If I didn't twist it and go into ruins
Hiding, praying, saying goodbye

You knew me by the summer air
I was your life
Potential got wasted and haunted
And faded down the drain
Got lost track in time

But it's all in my eyes
When I close them
Late night drives
The roses
And my hands
Were frozen
But you held them tight

Now you're a lost cause
You're always out the door
You're a lost cause
I can't hold you anymore
I need a reason
For why you're so unsure
You're a lost cause
After all

There are many types of strangers
Some you'll get to know
But I am the kind you used to know
But choose to act like you don't know anymore

So I lay there with my eyes
Wide open
Tracing back
The moments
All the words
You've spoken
You swore on your life

Now you're a lost cause
You're always out the door
You're a lost cause
I can't hold you anymore
I need a reason
For why you're so unsure
You're a lost cause
After all

Front doorstep
Front door, I can see him
Held on to my bag
I gave him back his T-shirt
It's all for the best (he's all over me)
For the best (he's all over)

I can see him there
He's haunted every corner of this house
I swear, he's near
And I can feel him there
In the back of the cab
In the back of my mind
And I couldn't let go (you have to let him go)

Now you're a lost cause
You're always out the door
You're a lost cause
I can't hold you anymore
I need a reason
For why you're so unsure
You're a lost cause
After all

You're a lost cause
But I was yours
