I didn’t know I was starting a war
when I met you
Between who you were and
who you could’ve been
if you would’ve let yourself
Making me weak trying
to keep you afloat
Down on my knees
Let you slip under the undertow
I would leave you if you’d let me
I would leave you if you’d let me go
Until then I’m here hoping
you’ll forget me
Cos I can’t help but lie in wait
in front of an open door
I can’t help but lie in wait
in front of an open door
I didn’t know I was digging
your grave every morning
The sweat in my eyes and the dirt
on my face should’ve
been a warning sign
Making a space in the ground
for you to grow
Digging in deeper for you to feel bitter
that you couldn’t be something more
I would leave you if you let me
I would leave you if you let me go
Until then I’m still hoping
you’ll forget me
Cos I can’t help but lie in wait
in front of an open door
I can’t help but lie in wait
in front of an open door
I can’t help but lie in wait
in front of an open door
Now I can’t leave you since you left me
I can’t leave you since
you let me go.
