Dead End

Feels like we’re better off
But under the porch light
I play the part
While you kissed me goodnight
You always have to make it so hard
How can you feel so far
When I’m in your arms

Before you let go of me
Turn around and tell me
I’m all you need
Hold me in the dark till I’m out of reach
Till I’m nobody to you

So I lay here however long
Waiting for the morning that never comes
Drag me through the dirt when you string me along
When there’s nothing up ahead
I’m waiting at the dead end
At the dead end

We try to talk it out
Ring around in circles
All the way down
Look at me right now
You always told me you would be here
We’re growing cold
Just thought you should know

Before you let go of me
Turn around and tell me
I’m all you need
Hold me in the dark till I’m out of reach
Till I’m nobody to you

So I lay here however long
Waiting for the morning that never comes
Drag me through the dirt when you string me along
When there’s nothing up ahead
I’m waiting at the dead end
At the dead end

I’m at the dead end
I said forever and meant it
You said you love me but didn't
I’m standing here
While you’re out there

So before you let go of me
Turn around and tell me
I’m all you need
Hold me in the dark till I’m out of reach
Till I’m nobody to you

So I lay here however long
Waiting for the morning that never comes
Drag me through the dirt when you string me along
When there is nothing up ahead
I’m waiting at the dead end
