[Verse 1]
You're cutting close, I've run dry
We're one of the things that can't die
If you lie to yourself, it's still a lie
You can't live all the time

[Pre-Chorus]
But you're killing me, you're not feeling me
It's unfamiliar inside, inside
On repeat, you see, she is incomplete
You're never going to change your mind, your mind

[Chorus]
Believe me, you're acting like the sound of a gun
Anyway, you're shooting and you're getting it wrong
Blowing the lights out alone in my room
'Cause I'm waiting for you

[Verse 2]
I'm not the route you prefer
And actions speak louder than words
If you fight with yourself, it's still a fight
You can't win all the time

[Pre-Chorus]
But you're killing me, you're not feeling me
It's unfamiliar inside, inside
On repeat, you see, she is incomplete
You're never going to change your mind, your mind
[Chorus]
Believe me, you're acting like the sound of a gun
Anyway, you're shooting and you're getting it wrong
Blowing the lights out alone in my room
'Cause I'm waiting for you
Believe me, I'm nothing like the person I was
Couldn't blame the reasoning for all of your flaws
It's out of proportion, how everything goes
But she wouldn't know

[Bridge]
And it's no wonder that everyone falls
Clinging on to metallic phone calls
Waiting for nine, it's your platform sign
Which way is taking me home
Always late, I leave when it's dark
No waiting in empty bars
And you're somone's absolute excuse
And she doesn't know

[Chorus]
Believe me
Anyway, you're shooting and you're getting it wrong
Blowing the lights out alone in my room
'Cause I'm waiting for you
Believe me, I'm nothing like the person I was
Couldn't blame the reasoning for all of your flaws
It's out of proportion, how everything goes
But she wouldn't know
[Outro]
You're someone's absolute excuse
And she doesn't know
