Lyrics
You left in such a rush
The ice is still cold in your glass
I sit and watch it melt
My head ringing with your laugh
Bitter-bright you smiled at me
Like I failed another test
“If you won’t give me anything
I guess this is for the best”
And you won’t give me anything
I gave you chances
What more could you want (Anything)
You were my advantage, my confidant
Once you saved a seat for me
I didn’t have to wait for scraps
I’d rather spend tonight alone
Cause I can’t watch as you relapse
Your sharpened tongue still takes my breath
Tears are freezing on my face
What a fool I was to think you’d change
Of all the friends I’ve known
I thought you would understand
The ruins you want to explore
Will smother every spark you have
Even if you think me cruel
I’d listen to the warning bell
Love’s a liability
Best to look out for yourself
You won’t give me anything
I’m out of chances
What else did you want (Anything)
There’s too much damage to carry on
I’ll say the words you’ll hate me for saying
I’ll dirty my hands while you just sit there praying
I’ve seen how this world breaks down everything true
So I’ll take the blame but I do it for you
I’ll say the words you’ll hate me for saying
You’ll dirty your hands so I will keep on praying
I’ve seen how this world breaks down everything true
So I’ll take the blame but I do it for you
You won’t give me anything
What more could you want
What else did you want
You won’t give me anything
What more could you want
What else did you want
You won’t give me anything
What more could you want
What else did you want
You won’t give me anything
What more could you want
What else did you want
(I’ll say the words you’ll hate me for saying)
What more could you want
What else did you want
(I’ll say the words, you’ll hate me)
What more could you want
What else did you want
