[Verse 1]
Oh, have some heart and hold it to your chest
We weren't in love, we were too young
We throw our words around as if they were not gold
Well, they are
Oh, maybe someday, I'll be something more
Real, with arms and legs, so I can walk away
And stay away forever and some more
Some more

[Chorus]
Stick around to watch this town fall
Down onto its knees
You can pray the day that you hope
Is coming 'round real soon
And I will run and stay away in a place
I don't know well of
You can choose a different song that
You will soon love

[Verse 2]
These are the reasons, that hurt me the most
Call off the search, she's coming home
People lie once, but not on the third
Not without reason, not for a girl
[Bridge]
The names may vary, the names, they may change
But the game, the game, it stays the same
We love, we want the ones that we will grow to hate, to hate
Oh, it's just so, so-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
Stick around to watch this town fall
Down onto its knees
You can pray the day that you hope
Is coming 'round real soon
And I will run and stay away in a place
I don't know well of
You can choose a different song that
You will soon love

[Outro]
Here are the reasons, that hurt me the most
Call off the search, she's coming home
People lie once, but not on the third
Not without reason, not for a girl
