[Verse 1]
I’m packing my bags
There’s nothing more to say, but goodbye
You’re watching me leave
How can you not ask me to stay, just ask me to stay
It's like there's no more pain
You're cold-hearted babe
Still you're not fazed
I'll call you a bitch
And then I'll walk away

[Prechorus]
So leave the key under the mat
Tonight the sky is turning black
Baby I’ll be coming back for you (I’ll be back for you)
I’ll be back for you

[Chorus]
You should've asked me to stay
Asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
Just ask me to stay

[Verse 2]
Is there someone else?
I feel like there’s more to what you say
You get in my face
But you broke my heart just yesterday
And you think it’s okay
You thought I’d be okay
Be serious baby
You dropped this bomb, intent to decapitate
[Prechorus]
So leave the key under the mat
Tonight the sky is turning black
Baby I’ll be coming back for you (I’ll be back for you)
I’ll be back for you

[Chorus]
You should've asked me to stay
Asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
Just ask me to stay

[Verse 3]
It's been so long since I've seen you and I can't
Believe that I put fear in your heart
When I only ever wanted was to care for you
Then I go and mess up every time that I open my
Mouth speaks from my mind and my mind goes
Wild every time silence is imposed
I've recognised all I've done wrong
But I only wanted to know
Why change was instigated
I claim the blame but I feel so hated
Heart aches but I guess I'll just have to
Taste the pain and walk away again with my
Feelings, so hard to let go
For you no longer echo
Fell deep and I fell so hard
Now I'm crushed by the weight of my heart that I have to leave
[Prechorus]
So leave the key under the mat
Tonight the sky is turning black
Baby I’ll be coming back for you (I’ll be back for you)
I’ll be back for you

[Chorus]
You should've asked me to stay
Asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
Should've asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
You should've asked me to stay
Just ask me to stay

[Overlap half-way through last chorus x2]
'Til my lungs collapse
At night screaming your name
'Til my heart give out
I might
Never gaze at your light I find
So I'll
Set fire to the rain tonight

'Til my lungs collapse
At night screaming your name
'Til my heart give out
I might
Never gaze at your light I find
So I'll
Set fire to the rain
