She's holding her breath like she's scared of it leaving
She's biting her tongue like I did last night
I said sorry but she just came closer and whispered
"It hurts pretty bad but it tastes kind of nice"
'Cause Love's got an evil twin sister named Power
Who sticks by her side everywhere that she goes
You give somebody one, then you give them the other
So pleasе understand if I'd rather keep both
'Cause thеre's no part of me that can't be torn apart
If you're not ready to leave, then I'll take the head start
I've put too much trust in feelings for too much of my life
I convinced myself to love you before you had even tried
And now look where you are, curled up underneath your sheets
Teary-eyed, waiting for me
To pop up on your phone, it's another night wasted
If you want control, well, then why don't you take it?
You don't get what you want, you start forgetting what you need
You do what you can to prove that you're still relevant to me
Like a fish that takes the bait just to be taken for a ride
If there's one thing that you've taught me, it's that love is just a fight
Between a bug and a boot, so come on, choose your fighter
If you'll be the moth, I guess I'll be the lighter
But times change like a compass
I'm turning away from this
There's more fish in the sea
Most of which have not hurt me
You passed by like a comet
You walk through quick like Sonic
Now you want me to stay
A couple hundred miles too late
Didn't say yes, I didn't say no
When you asked if she's mine but I'm sure that you noticed
The change in my eyes, the change in my manner
The distaste for me that you wave like a banner
Seems to disappear when you start to play sober
To tell me you're sorry, you've thought it all over
But times change like a compass
I'm turning away from this
There's more fish in the sea
Most of which have not hurt me
You passed by like a comet
You walk through quick like Sonic
Now you want me to stay
A couple hundred miles too late
