Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'll take a warm body
If I can't have love
Or I'll go out drinking
Till I find the one
[PreChorus]
The girls got mean before fifteen
Their mothers taught 'em everything
But Emily's been telling me to breathe
Emily's been telling me to breathe
[Chorus]
Only call you when I'm down, need saving
Everything I touch, I break it
Give me something to believe in
Promise that you won't go leaving
'Cause you've been getting less convincing
I'm begging you to stop and listen
I'll give you something to believe in
Promise that you won't go leaving
Promise me you won't go leaving
[Verse 2]
It's almost been a decade
I haven't gotten closure
Paint myself the victim
No one told me it was over
[PreChorus]
And every time I step outside
You're there
Back to thirteen
You're pulling on my hair
[Chorus]
Only call you when I'm down, need saving
Everything I touch, I break it
Give me something to believe in
Promise that you won't go leaving
'Cause you've been getting less convincing
I'm begging you to stop and listen
I'll give you something to believe in
Promise that you won't go leaving
[Bridge]
I don't wanna go back home
'Cause everything, I touch I break it
I wish I'd let you know
I'm begging you to stop and listen
You made me leave before I'd grown
I'll give you something to believe in
I'm just a girl, I'm all alone
Just promise me you won't go leaving
[Outro]
I'll take a warm body
