lyrics

oh it's hell, hell, hell -
the way you keep me around
i swear it's holding you down
i swear you're better without me

i've been up all day
coming up with the words
the perfect line you deserve
like penning diamonds and pearls, girl

oh it's walk the moon
on a tuesday afternoon
and it's the feeling i get
with your breath between my name

[c]
pieces of you
slipping into my mind
oh it's more than another last time
it's the clatter of thunder outside
light from the moon
catching up with your eyes
you were always the favorite b-side
to my one track mind

and it's the way i know
you'll always pick up the phone

and i could write to you
knowing you won't pretend
to miss all these letters
that i'll never send

and i could call you up
knowing you won't be there
confessionals into your voice mail
that you'll never hear, nor should you ever

now they're stuck with me
moments i can't replace
knowing what's here today
is saving 'goodbye' for another time

but it'll be just fine
the pressure's on me this time
i always want sunrise
without the sunset

[c]

and it's the way i knew
you'd always pick up the phone

this is goodbye, for once
i know that it's overdue
you know that it's like me to hold onto nothing
you know that it's like me to run away

this is goodbye, for good
i know that i've outgrown you
i hope you remember the flowers in summer
i hope you remember before the rain

and it's the way i knew
you'd always pick up the phone
