You're So Cool

Why did you go so far?
So strange to why you'd run
Why can't you say you're done?
Why can't you face what you've become
I'm a used up, beaten down, sinking in the ground
I don't need anyone I'll do it to myself
I can't speak about why you left
Cause you're the only one that's sitting there
Right there in my face
Even though you're far away
Won't notice me unless I yell
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
I wish I was you

My last thought was your hands and hair
My last touch was your lips
I'm sleeping so soundly now
Six-feet in the ground
Don't dig my grave my love
Rest you've done enough
You gave me everything
More than I'd ever want
So thank you for being all I got
So sorry, I'm leaving
I don't mean you any harm
I just want you to know
You were my last thought

Anything, you've done for me
Anything, you've done to me
I can't see
And everything, you made me see
And everything, you made me need
Everything you'll say to me is gone
Everything you've said to me is gone
I never thought I'd die so old
You mature in your teens when
You don't know how to speak like me
When you know what you need but your chest doesn't let you breathe
You never ask
You never ask for me
My head don't do what it should
My thoughts to more bad than good
I don't know when it's going to end
I'm sick of waiting for a second chance
I just hope you see what I am
What I'm capable of
I hope you know that I'm still trying
Even though you're eyes aren't on
Anything or everything on me
Just say it already

I need lights on
To be able to fall asleep these days
Please turn them on so you don't have to deal with me today
So I don't make you feel bad
For wanting to be next to you
For wanting to see you
I'll wait, I'll wait
For you to get so far to where I'm not
Where did you go?
Who's gonna turn the lights on?
Who's not gonna be there for me?
And I need you to be on
Just like you always are
Harmonizing love is all I'll ever want from you
I'll put my sweaty hands out
Cause I'm so nervous now
That I don't think it's any different
From my body heat
I'll wait, I'll wait
For you to get so far to where I'm not
Where did you go?
Who's gonna turn the lights on?
Who's not gonna be there for me?

I've got my hands out
Somebody grabbed them today
Grabbed me on my hips
Then gave me a little kiss
Made my heart stop
Then made it speed up
I never wanna go back
Nobody take me home
Cause I just wanna stay here
I don't wanna go home
I wanna spend a life here
Living in your yard
You could chain me to your wall
You could hit me when you want
You could leave me with the lights off
I'll be writing you another song
I'll say you're what my songs wouldn't write
A feeling that feels right
Feels good on my skin
And it kills me to leave here
I'll remember when you're gone
That "adventure is out there"
I hope it's not too long
Till we get to go everywhere
Cause I just wanna stay here
I don't wanna go home
I wanna spend a life here
Living in your yard
You could chain me to your wall
You could hit me when you want
You could leave me with the lights off
I'll be writing you another song
