I'm standing at the foot of the bed
You got your head in your hands
And I'm asking what are
You upset about again
You just look up at me
Your eyes are filled with defeat
And I know it's probably
Something that you think I did
I don't ever wanna be like you Dave
I don't ever wanna feel as cold as you do
And I have never been so insulted
You don't care about anything like I do
So I just tell you you never will
And we chalk it up to your morning after pill
You're sitting in the passenger seat
You've got cold cave on repeat
And he's asking what do you
Like about these songs again
You just grit your teeth
You fill your words with deceit
You gotta try your
Best not to make him upset
I just really like the way his voice sounds
And the way that he strings the sentence together
But you can tell that he doesn't buy it
Because when he nods his eyes read whatever
The light then flashes from red to green
And he's left wishing that you would just come clean
But we will never tell you when it's falling apart
Loaded my last round for a shot in dark
And we don't need to tell you but we rarely miss
That's because when you move in silence we can hear your steps
And we don't want to hear about your change of heart
If you meant what you said that would have lead from the start
And we don't really care who you think you are
Because you come around here we will pull your card yeah
I'm sitting at the edge of the bed
You know its empty again
And I'm asking can I
Do another night of this
Hasn't been easy for me
Living in solitary
But you should know that
I'm at least trying my best
But you know I will always find it
When I need it I can't help myself
You know how I like my girls
Soft as silk and mean as hell
But her eyes still fade from blue to green
And I do my best not to pull her under
But we will never tell you when it's falling apart
Loaded my last round for a shot in dark
And we don't need to tell you but we rarely miss
That's because when you move in silence we can hear your steps
And we don't want to hear about your change of heart
If you meant what you said that would have lead from the start
And we don't really care who you think you are
Because you come around here we will pull your card yeah
49 reasons to stay 51 reasons to leave
So pretend you're a saint
I'll keep playing the fool
But it won't go away
We are miserable
And these are the hours
Where you and I play it cool
But you feel so far away
Standing right next to you
We will never tell you when it's falling apart
Loaded my last round for a shot in dark
And we don't need to tell you but we rarely miss
That's because when you move in silence we can hear your steps
And we don't want to hear about your change of heart (49 reasons to stay)
If you meant what you said that would have lead from the start
And we don't really care who you think you are (51 reasons to leave)
Because you come around here we will pull your card yeah
So pretend you're a saint (49 reasons to stay)
I'll keep playing the fool
But it won't go away (51 reasons to leave)
We are miserable
And these are the hours (49 reasons to stay)
Where you and I play it cool
But now we both count the days (51 reasons to leave)
Because you know I love you so
