You seeped inside of me
Like rain into the ground, savior in a drought
It took me ages just to see it
You stayed around for a decade’s love
But everybody knows that everybody goes
Straight into the landfill when you’re done
But i don’t think anyone knew
That i would be thrown out too
With the benefit of the doubt, not even you
But you can’t just pack up whenever you please
And shine your smile while abandoning me
I know you need your space, but this won’t mend
I guess all those years didn’t mean a damn thing
Who was i to really honestly think
Your love for me was more stable than the rest?
You say that you’ve found bliss
You’re finally in love and you have found the one
I’m trying so hard to believe it
All the nights that we didn’t sleep
Working out a plan, turn a boy into a man
Singing “hallelujah, i am free"
You said “i swear i’d die
Without you by my side"
For your sake, i hope it’s good this time
But you can’t just pack up whenever you please
And shine your smile while abandoning me
I know you need your space, but this won’t mend
I guess all those years didn’t mean a damn thing
Who was i to really honestly think
Your love for me was more stable than the rest?
Leave it up to you to run away
With your pockets full of the very last of my faith
Leave it up to you to run away
With your pockets full of the very last of my faith

But you can’t just pack up whenever you please
And shine your smile while abandoning me
iI know you need your space, but this won’t mend
I guess all those years didn’t mean a damn thing
Who was i to really honestly think
Your love for me was more stable than the rest?
Leave it up to you to run away
With your pockets full of the very last of my faith
