Don't Wait for Me
Who am I to say our story's over?
When in truth it never quite began
I've been on the fence with my cold shoulder
While you've been on the ground trying your best to understand
In our drunkenness we held each other
Then I made a promise I can't keep
Woke up safe and warm beneath your covers
And that was when I knew that I was in too deep
So here's the truth, my dear
Not what you want to hear
Don't you wait for me
I will never give you what you need
You'd end up hating me
With all your grief and disappointment, guaranteed
So please don't wait for me
How come every time I find what I've been chasing after?
I change my mind and throw it all away
You're everything that I could ever ask for
So I'm too scared to settle down and let that feeling stay
And you say; "take your time"
With all your faith in a fake horizon line
Don't you wait for me
I will never give you what you need
You'd end up hating me
With all your grief and disappointment, guaranteed
So please don't wait for me
But it's so selfish, I know, I still have yet to let you go
Even though I don't want you
But it's just 'cause I'm afraid I'll see the mistake I've made and want to be
In your arms after you've found somebody new
Don't you wait for me
I will never give you what you need
You'll end up hating me
Only grief and disappointment, guaranteed
So please don't wait for me
