I have a nasty habit leaving before I get left
Will think my light's on yellow and I'm keeping you on red
Stonewall my emotions even when I wanna
Wanna cry tears as wide as the oceans, but I don't
When fights too many 3 AM's, I guess we're broken up
You're like: This is just a conversation, baby, what the?
Now screaming goodbye out, which means I love you
Internal warfares 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 know
Wait
Don't go

Can I take you back now?
Can we make it last now?

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 leaving, I was only fishing
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
But time and tensions 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 know
Wait
Don't go
I'm screaming on the phone, I'm screaming on the phone
Wait
Don't go
You're all I wanna know, you're all I wanna know
Wait
Don't go

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 just a girl
I'm afraid, turn around, hit the brakes
Ooh, and now you got me

I'm screaming on the phone, I'm screaming on the phone
Wait (can I take you back now?)
Don't go (can we make it last now?)
You're all I wanna know, you're all I wanna know
Wait
Don't go

Can I take you back now?
Can we make it last now?
Can I take the past?
Just the patterns of my past so
Wait
