Watch Me Walk Away

I used to think you were the highlight of my week

My life revolved around talking to you.

I’ll never know why I went to those extremes,

Until you looked at me.

But time has passed and we’re still stuck in the same place.

And now I’m starting to think all those times

I went out of my way to see you in the hallway

Should’ve been you instead

 

Make up your mind; it’s not that hard

What do you say?

I’ve never been the patient one; can’t stay in the same place

I’ve been waiting for a while, so tell me

It’s not a waste

Take me as I am, or you can watch me walk away

 

Stuck in reverse

I used to think you were the greatest thing in my whole world

And I’m still trying to save whatever we were

You’re just not pulling your own weight

And everyday I’m hoping you’ll say whatever you used to say

That had me smiling the whole way home

For the whole night

And into tomorrow

Make up your mind; it’s not that hard

What do you say?

I’ve never been the patient one; can’t stay in the same place

I’ve been waiting for a while, so tell me

It’s not a waste

Take me as I am, or you can watch me walk away

I know you’ve got a rep to protect

And underneath it all, you’re the sweetest thing

But don’t you think it’s mean to play

With little girls’ fragile hearts?

 

Make up your mind; it’s not that hard

What do you say?

I’ve never been the patient one, and I don’t have all day

And if collecting all these broken hearts

Is just a game you play

Then I’m done, and you can watch me walk away
