Where The Light Used To Lay
[Verse 1]
I'm getting stuck, taking a break
Yeah, I'm leaving, baby, I can't take it
I've had enough of more of the same
Maybe you should change the way I'm thinking
[Pre-Chorus 1]
It takes consistency
Oh to have you stay with me
But now you're falling flat
I know I'm better than that
Don't know what I could do
Ooh, to catch another view
Nobody's gonna say
That this is worth all the pain
[Chorus]
So won't you give it up?
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away
[Verse 2]
I'm on the up and back into view
Am I too much crazy? Think I could be
I've seen enough, don't you feel it too?
'Cause the way you paint is still a blessing
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm not an animal
I'm not your wrecking ball
It's not a metaphor
Want you to see how I bleed
So drop your camouflage
Oh, it's just a dumb façade
That you keep putting on
I've got you down on your knees
[Chorus]
So won't you give it up?
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away
[Bridge]
It's hard to remember, harder to forget
Put a picture of you on the internet
Somewhere in the drama we got left behind
It's just another bad end to the storyline
Tell me the truth, are you coming home?
You're just an underpaid extra that never shows
Just a figment of the plans that I never had
And I hope that the next one won't be so bad
[Chorus]
So hard to give it up
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of (dreaming forever)
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away
