WAIT!

I have a nasty habit, leaving before I get left
You'll think my light's on yellow
When I'm keeping you on read
Stonewall my emotions even when I wanna
Cry tears as wide as the ocean, but I don't
One fight, too many 3AMs
I guess we're broken up
You're like, "This is just a conversation
Baby, what the fuck?"

Now I'm screaming "Goodbye" out
Like it means "I love you"
Internal warfare
It's what I always do
Now I'm watching you
It's hitting different now
But I'm telling myself

I'm better on my own
I'm better on my own
Wait! Don't go
It's all I've ever known
It's all I've ever known
Wait! Don't go
Can I take it back now?
Can we make it last? Oh

I'm codependent with my independence
Through and through
My September makes me stubborn
But it's fighting with my moon
When I said, "Just leave then"
I was only fishin'
How stupid of me to think you wouldn't listen

Now you're packing up your T-shirts
But I want 'em in the drawer
Can't get myself to say "Stay"
Before you're out the door
Been time under tension
It's blurring my vision
And so once again
My head and heart are at war

I'm better on my own
I'm better on my own
Wait! Don't go
It's all I've ever known
It's all I've ever known
Wait! Don't go

I'm screaming on the phone
I'm screaming on the phone
Wait! (Just wait) Don't go
You're all I wanna know
You're all I wanna know
Wait!

If I drive you away, will it cut like a blade?
Will it carry the same weight?
At the end of the day, I'm a girl, I'm afraid
Turn around, hit the brakes
Ooh, and now you got me

Screaming on the phone
I'm screaming on the phone (Can I take it back now)
Wait! Don't go (Can we make it last? Oh)
You're all I wanna know
You're all I wanna know
Wait! Don't go

Can I take it back now?
Can we make it last? Oh
Feelings ain't the facts
Just the patterns of my past, so
Wait!
