lyrics

i can see the fear in your eyes
and i know some people would say this is your fault
but i don't know, no i don't know, no i don't think i'll ever know
and i don't think i'm sitting this fence because it's easier, no
i think my ignorance is required by the circumstances
they say you can spot i lie if you really watch and you really want to, but
i swear i want to and i just don't know, and so

i don't know why i stay in this place,
ya know there's no good reason to be here
except there's nowhere better to go, and so
i don't know why i stay in this place
it's just heartbreak, broken bones, unforgivable mistakes

now i've heard it said that because some of us can't leave
that, well, the rest of us should stay instead of leaving all the hard work behind us, and
i've heard it said that because some of us can't leave
that, well, the assholes among us, are gonna have to
they say you can't run from your problems
they'll follow you until you solve them, well maybe i,
maybe i just can't clean up this mess, 'cause it's not mine. is it mine?
i don't know, no, i don't know, no, i don't think i'll ever know, and so

i don't know why i stay in this place,
ya know there's no good reason to be here
except there's nowhere better to go, and so
i don't know why i stay in this place
it's just heartbreak, broken bones, unforgivable mistakes

and i can see the fear in your eyes
and i know some people would say this is your fault
but i don't know, no i don't know, no, i don't think i'll ever know
no, i'm no detective, fuck the police
and i may not trust you, but i still can't believe the shit i've read on the internet
i'm just so tired of choosing sides
i guess i just don't have it in me to punish my friends, no matter how
no matter how much they may deserve it, yeah, you deserve it, but

i don't know why i stay in this place
it's just heartbreak
another heartbreak
