From The Start You Won't Stay
You say you owe me everything
That our time has made you stronger
That life itself has brightened up
You just need that little bit longer
To straighten out your thoughts and fears
And get right back on track
But your lies aren’t fooling anyone
Someday you’ll come crawling back
I would have given a limb for you
I just wanted to see you smiling
Your eyes light up, your cheeks turn pink
I wanted that to be my thing
Cheering you up and taking you out
And getting your mind off the world
And this is where it’s brought me
Once again, left with fists curled
One day you’ll whisper you love me, the next you’ll turn your back
You make me feel unworthy when it’s really heart you lack
Put on that fake smile; throw on your best shirt
Look sharp for the girl who, in time, you’ll hurt
Tell her she’s beautiful, tell her each day
But right from the very start you already know that you won’t stay
