Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Get dressed in your bed, while she's asleep
It isn't right, but it isn't hard
Tell me, tell me, won't you understand?
Show me, show me, show me a better plan
It's summer lies, it's someone else's nothing
[Verse 2]
Here it comes now
You ask me to stay
You ask me to stay
You ask me to stay
But there's a million reasons to leave
[Verse 3]
Find a job, find a friend
Find a home, find a dog
Settle down, out of town
Find a dream, shut it down
[Verse 4]
Please, please don't point it that way
It's just a trigger that goes once and you'll be unafraid
I wish that I'd been noticed, but it never goes that way
The silence that you brought has gone, gone, gone
[Verse 5]
Tell me, tell me, won't you understand?
Show me, show me, show me
[Verse 6]
You ask me to stay
You ask me to stay
You ask me to stay
But there's a million reasons to leave
[Verse 7]
Show me what to say, show me what to be
Show me what to see, show me what to be
[Verse 8]
Find a job, find a friend
Find a home, find a dog
Settle down, out of town
Find a dream, shut it down
[Verse 9]
I don't wanna be in there with you
I don't wanna be in there without your loving either
I waited for your thoughts
Can't wait no longer
