lyrics

On your feet, my friend
You stumble now, you will again
Trust me
Just don’t look surprised to see me
I was tired of being alone
What is happening while I’m gone?

If it has been so long, just say it
You tried to hold your breath and couldn’t
That might not be so bad, now would it?
If it has been so long…

‘Cause I’m waiting for this to divert your focus
And besides, you never stick around
Besides, you never stick around

Maybe someday we could clean this mess we’ve made
Reclaim those reasons why you’ve stayed
And we’ll regress for a short time
We’ll wrong our rights like last time

You might not sleep so well
And on that subject, sleep at home
(Sleep at home)
Won’t you stop? Please stop
I’ve got it, I’ve got this
And I’ll get you too, I promise

If it has been so long, just say it
You tried to pace yourself and couldn’t
That might not be so bad, now would it?
If it has been so long…

‘Cause I’m waiting for this to divert your focus
And besides, you never stick around
Besides, you never stick around
So come if you’re lonely, for this night only
And besides, you never stick around
Besides, you never stick around

Let the houseboy serve his master day by night
The convict serve his prison time
And return home to his family
‘Cause after all, he’s family
And that will all be lost forever

‘Cause I’m waiting for this to divert your focus
And besides, you never stick around
Besides, you never stick around
So come if you’re lonely, for this night only
And besides, you never stick around
Besides, you never stick around

Just be happy we can finally close our eyes
We’ll have a laugh, we’ll say goodnight
But we’ll never look past this now, will we?
No.
Well, I’m sorry
This is war, I’m certain now
Each person that you live without is a person that you live with
Yeah, a person that you live with
And this will all be lost forever
