Want Me Around

Afraid to call and see what's good

Or is it simply understood

That there's a reason you don't want me around?

Want me around

When the lake is freezing cold

And the city's underground

Will you feel me like the snow

Building up without a sound?

Till I melt back into view

A bottle of red and a case of blues

Can I fall back into you?

You're unfazed

By the time we wasted saving face

Threw the postcard on the floor

'Cause I screwed up like before

They say that time heals everything

But what if time is everything?

Afraid to call and see what's good

Or is it simply understood

There's a reason you don't want me around?

You play it chay and that's okay

But I don't buy the whole charade

Like it's a secret you don't want me around

When the air is filled with smoke

On the fourth day in July

Will you watch my heart explode?

Shed a brilliant disguise

In a disappearing bloom

I caught the darker shade of you

Then you did like you always do

You're unfazed

By the time we wasted saving face

Left a postcard on the porch

'Cause I've grown up a little more

They say that time heals everything

But what if time is everything?

Afraid to call and see what's good

Or is it simply understood

There's a reason you don't want me around?

You play it chay and that's okay

But I don't buy the whole charade

Like it's a secret you don't want me around

Want me around

And I've been awake since five a.m. (Want me around)

Do you even wonder where I am? (Want me around)

I've been awake, and I'll stay awake (Want me around)

Until you see me again

So will you call and see what's good

Or is it simply understood

That there's a reason you don't want me around?

You play it chay and that's okay

But I don't buy the whole charade

Like it's a secret you don't want me around

Want me around

Afraid to call and see what's good

Or is it simply understood

There's a reason you don't want me around?

You play it chay and that's okay

But I don't buy the whole charade (Want me around)

Like it's a secret you don't want me around
