I know it won't work

 I left you here
 Heard you keep the extra closet empty
 In case this year
 I come back and stay throughout my twenties
 What if I won't?
 How am I supposed to put that gently?
 And down the road
 You will love me until you resent me

 I've had the thought
 Tried to work it out through anxious pacing
 What if I'm not
 Worth the time and breath I know you're saving?
 But it's a lot
 All the shine of half a decade fading
 The whole facade
 Seemed to fall apart, it's complicated

 And part of me wants to walk away till you really listen
 I hate to look at your face and know that we're feeling different
 'Cause part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?
 Why won't you try moving on for once? That might make it easy
 I know we cut all the ties but you're never really leaving
 And part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?

 I know it won't work like that

 I'll open up
 I'm thinking everything you wish I wasn't
 The call was tough
 But you're better off, I'm being honest
 So won't you stop
 Holding out for me when I don't want it
 Just brush me off
 'Cause I'm your ghost right now, your house is haunted

 And part of me wants to walk away till you really listen
 I hate to look at your face and know that we're feeling different
 'Cause part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?
 Why won't you try moving on for once? That might make it easy
 I know we cut all the ties but you're never really leaving
 And part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?

 I know it won't work like that, huh?
 I know it won't work like that, huh?

 And part of me wants to walk away till you really listen
 I hate to look at your face and know that we're feeling different
 'Cause part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?
 Why won't you try moving on for once? That might make it easy
 I know we cut all the ties but you're never really leaving
 And part of me wants you back, but
 I know it won't work like that, huh?
