Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2056294
Verse 1
Why don't you wanna be around me when you're sad, baby?
I wanna ask you, but I know you'll just fall back
So I make stories up, and, in my head, you tell me they're the truth
So used to all the eggshells on the floor, me and you

Verse 2
Oh, the more I pour, the emptier your cup
Baby, you're still halfway out the door with every drop
And I don't have very much of myself left, but could you wait up?
'Cause I'd still give you all the rest of me, and then some

Chorus
Ended up in stalemate, somehow
Gave you all my pieces, and the benefit of the doubt
Wasted so much time, wearing myself down
Now here we are in stalemate, somehow, somehow, somehow

Verse 3
Oh, I've started to believe the words you weaved and made me wear
But I think they're better suited for you, if we're being fair
My reflection isn't mine at all, it's something you projected
Just too fed up with yourself to accept it, no

Chorus
Ended up in stalemate, somehow
Gave you all my pieces, and the benefit of the doubt
Wasted so much time, wearing myself down
Now here we are in stalemate, somehow, somehow, somehow
Ended up in stalemate, somehow
Gave you all my pieces, and the benefit of the doubt
Wasted so much time, wearing myself down
Now here we are in stalemate, somehow, somehow, somehow

Bridge
Babe, I'm sick of getting hurt
Sick of living in this world
Where you're my end all be all and my final word
I was scared that I might lose
But I've done all I can do, baby
Looks like it's your turn to make a move

Outro
Babe, I'm sick of getting hurt
Sick of living in this world
Where you're my end all be all and my final word
I was scared that I might lose
But I've done all I can do, baby
Looks like it's your turn to make a move
