Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trace the outline of my skull
Let me live or let me go
We've joked that we share the same brain
You've never walked with this kind of pain
[PreChorus]
It's not all your fault, it's not all mine
But I've asked for you so many times
[Chorus]
And I'm not our debt collector
But I can't resurrect her
Oh, the person that I once knew
She left the second you walked in the room
[Verse 2]
And I should rebuild my world from scratch
But I can't fathom anyone I pass feeling like you
So much of love is not knowing what to do
And making deals when you didn't know the rules
Like a fool
[Chorus]
And I'm not our debt collector
But I can't resurrect her
Oh, the person that I once knew
She left the second you walked in the room
And I'm not our debt collector
But I've been so reckless
Running in circles around you
'Til I just got too tired to move
[Outro]
I wasn't in on the joke, you choke me dry
I say thank you every time
I've told the story wrong for ages
Oh, I've made you blameless
And I know I'm no cherub
And I've watched you pull your hair out
Over all my broken lines
But you can't say I haven't always tried
