I need some time to make my way
Through all this empathy
I make no claims on why today
Was never meant to be

Don't let me go
Pure emotion is telling you so
Then I'm saved
Don't let me go
With the kind of mistake
You're ready to make again

I've tried so hard to understand
Why you never planned to stay
I'm tired of being the lonely man
'cause it never went my way
