Leaving Lyrics

It would be best if I was sober.
But I've been swimming in this bottle for days.
I couldn't take advice, it's over. And I can't feel my heart.
Even though she stands there, pulling on the strings.
Pretending that she has wings, being smart and graceful.
Doesn't make you better than me.

You told me I was your one and only,
As you were shopping for arms to hold you.
I swear it's true I'm done with you.
Well you watched me come undone, As radiant as the sun.
I swear it's true, I'm leaving you.

So quiet is the city, though it never sleeps.
I am dreaming, I'm awake.
I used to think I need you.
While hearts are falling down,
her footsteps crush them into the sole of her shoe.
There I lie self destructing.

You stole my heart.
You took my breath,
You left my world empty.
I'm breathless, I'm loveless, I'm hopeless.
Hopelessly carelessly loveless.
Drowning, you left me drowning.

You told me I was your one and only,
As you were shopping for arms to hold you.
I swear it's true, I'm leaving you.
