You Used To Say

I remember how you held me in the MORNINGS
like a mother with her newborn

How you said that you would always love my life
like it was yours, just broken promises,
Sam fixed my lights last week, and Thomas don't pay bills but he
gets loving, and Mr. Brown only comes around for breakfast
when it's hot out the oven.

Don't really feel like arguing if I can just walk away this time,
don't go calling your brothers for me, I'll pack my things and
leave this time, and Precinct 12 can stay immobile, no hot
car hoods and Triple H-ing me, for the things I had no control over.

If I thought that telling you what you first told me
to make me stay, I'd break your heart in hundreds
of places, you'd do like me, and Just Walk Away.
