The Scarlet Ending Exactly What You Want lyrics

After many miles, I'm here waiting by the phone
I swear it's quite a miracle I made it home.
One step at a time, I forged a river in your eyes,
making saints of all the sinners in your life.

Now you go walking past the shoreline
and I'm sure I haven't given any reason
to go sailing off again.

Don't you go running after me
(cause your cause just walked out the door)
I won't waste a blinded second more
(on hope your novelty wore off)
And I can't help but to believe
(that your mind's made as soon as you get)
exactly what you want,
you're gonna leave.

So you know
the leaves on the ground now they're getting cold.
They're dragging the lake and so soon they'll know.
I'm telling you now to let me go.


It's the same
decision we're making upon our graves.
And using our reasons to hide distaste
of calling the same thing a different name.

And now you're shaking in your bones
and I can't take this anymore
the reason's killing me
don't ever you forget...

Don't you go running after me
(cause your cause just walked out the door)
I won't waste a blinded second more
(on hope your novelty wore off)
And I can't help but to believe
(that your mind's made as soon as you get)
exactly what you want,
you're gonna leave.
