The Drive Home - 0305 lyrics

I spent eight months stuck in this head of mine Trying to get out of a sh**ty state of mind I guess I should've seen this coming when You started to blow me off It took me a while to realise that your doormat Had my name all over it Whispers from strangers that I didn't want to hear Turning into images of all my biggest fears Playing out stories that I couldn't bear to watch I tried everything but I couldn't switch them off Struggling to believe it would get easier with time For too long now you've had a hold on me But your grip's starting to loosen and I'm finally free I took our photos down and stowed them away You've left the side of my bed And I can finally rest my head again I've been waking up to this ghost town street At five a.m. for the past few weeks Wondering if this routine will take my mind off The thought of where you've been And the things I wish I hadn't seen And I know it's not working but I won't give up on trying I can still feel your arms around my waist Every night when I turn off the lights For too long now you've had a hold on me But your grip's starting to loosen and I'm finally free I took our photos down and stowed them away You've left the side of my bed And I can finally rest my head again My friends all see the look in my eyes Like I haven't felt a thing since you said goodbye And it was so easy for you to move on from me Just like it was for you to leave I gave you every f**ing ounce I could You never stayed like you said you would
