[Verse 1]
If I had a choice in this then I would not choose you
You disappoint me every time and know I mean that too
I really think the time alone could do my head some good
I wanna try forgetting' bout the place where we both stood
Used to be a mess combined and now we’re separate wrecks
Kept each other’s blood in vials that hung around our necks

[Chorus]
Long way back baby, I’m not certain
If my presence being here is just a burden
Say it is, ain’t that the truth?
Thank god I’m hardly nеxt to you
Wait until I find you here
I promise you’ll bе steering clear
Long time now, maybe I’m not hurting
If existing was a show then pull the curtain
Say it was then I would quit
I’d thank myself for doing it
Stay for what? Don’t get the point
There wasn’t much that I enjoyed

[Verse 2]
If I had a say in this then I would not say you
They watch afar, the both of us ain’t caring what they do
I really think the miles apart could really do no harm
I wanna try forgetting' bout the bruises on our arms
Used to be a total mess but now we’ve broke in two
I hope one day it’s working out I know you’re hoping too
[Chorus]
Long way back baby, I’m not certain
If my presence being here is just a burden
Say it is, ain’t that the truth?
Thank god I’m hardly next to you
Wait until I find you here
I promise you’ll be steering clear
Long time now, maybe I’m not hurting
If existing was a show then pull the curtain
Say it was then I would quit
I’d thank myself for doing it
Stay for what? Don’t get the point
There wasn’t much that I enjoyed
