Verse
------
with your hands
empty of mine
you clean your apartment
and count down the time

knock on the door
surprise, its me
home for the weekend

PreChorus
---------
im in a place of happiness
im in a place you made so perfect
tears cant explain
neither can i

Chorus
-------
this sort of thing doesnt happen
to people like us
this place is so comfortable
but only because
im trying my hardest
to keep it warm
hoping that just maybe
youll bring back the shine
that brightened this room
its so dark without you

Verse
------
whatever happened
to the times of before
they didnt just disappear
its as if youre not sure

im not
as bad as i seem
our good moments
exceed
all the rest

PreChorus
----------
im in a place of lonliness
im in a place you made so wonderful
tears cant explain
so why do i try?

Chorus
-------
this sort of thing doesnt happen
to people like us
this place is so comfortable
but only because
im trying my hardest
to keep it warm
hoping that just maybe
youll bring back the shine
that brightened this room
its so dark without you

Bridge
---------
where are you running
theres no way out
believe it or not
id show you the door
if i knew where it was
its not me holding you
youre doing that yourself
