Come Down

Sitting on my same old bed
Listening to the mixtape you sent
It's been a year
Why are you still haunting here?
Remember when I promised
There would be no more words
But in these songs, you're all I heard

I'm still alone in this smalltown
His love, it wasn't what I thought I found
It's been a year
Since I dropped my last tear
Out in your parking lot
Down the street from where we worked
I can tell you now, it still hurts

And I don't know why I can't just seem to let go
My daddy swears it's a flaw
Hold my faults up, yes, she's still in your life
And nothing really has changed
I threw rocks at your bedroom window once
And everything must come down
I guess I just need to come down

I hate the memories of his truck
The thoughts of dirt roads & lover's luck
I hate memories of our roadtrips
And the taste of our first kiss
He hated your ghost
And I hate his now
Why can't this all just slow down?

And I don't know why I can't just seem to let go
My daddy swears it's a flaw
Hold my faults up, yes, she's still in your life
And nothing really has changed
I threw rocks at your bedroom window once
And everything must come down
I guess I just need to come down

So I un-pin your pictures from the corkboard
Hanging in my bedroom at my parents' house
I had to come back here to run away from being free
And I thought in his love I had found everything
But I found nothing

And I don't know why I can't just seem to let go
My daddy swears it's a flaw
Hold my faults up, yes, she's still in your life
And nothing really has changed
I threw rocks at your bedroom window once
And everything must come down
I guess I just need to come down
