I feel it in my bones
Even when I’m alone
Momma said, “I told you so”
Going down a different road
You call me late at night
I pick up every time
Wish that I could rewind
Got some peace of mind

Shut up, don’t wanna hear it now
I’m fed up
Wish I could say it was enough
To make me walk away
And I’m messed up 
‘Cause every time I start to get up
My head feels f*cked up
And I know it won’t change

The things you do,
Only make me want to get closer to you
And the things that you say
Only make me want to stay

Can’t push me away
I’m not going, I’ll wait
You know this street runs two ways

So, I need to hear your voice 
Know I’m standing here by choice
And I can’t hear the background noise, 
anyway 

Shut up, don’t wanna hear it now
I’m fed up
Wish I could say it was enough
To make me walk away
And I’m messed up 
‘Cause every time I start to get up
My head feels f*cked up
And I know it won’t change

The things you do,
Only make me want to get closer to you
And the things that you say
Only make me want to stay
