Songtexte stickaround - nickwuh

You don't gotta stick around
If you decided overnight
That you're gonna change you're mind
Gritted smiles to my face, mhm

You don't gotta stick around
If you decided overnight
That you're gonna change your mind
Wouldn't want you to fake gritted smiles to my face
Just to have you pull the rug when you're tired of my embrace
I don't want you pretending
If it's not your intent

To stick around, watch the clouds, when the sky is falling down
It could be us against the world, baby how does that sound?
But the hesitation in your voice, say it's "too good to be true"
So with one foot out the door, you're gone before I even knew you

Why waste my time with empty promises
You can't follow through
On anything that you say you commit yourself to
So break my bones if you want
If you do, make it quick
If you don't think I'm enough then

You don't gotta stick around
If you decided overnight
That you're gonna change your mind
Wouldn't want you to fake gritted smiles to my face
Just to have you pull the rug when you're tired of my embrace
I don't want you pretending
If it's not your intent

In the first place, I'm making the same mistakes
Chasing after images of those who've gone their own way
Never gonna stay, silent hallways
How am I supposed to have faith when they're leaving always

And it's not your obligation to hold yourself down to me
But I can't help listening to intrusive insecurities
So I clear my head for a second, take a deep breath
Hold it in, sober up from the demons, the root of rumination

Anxiety, your eyes on me
Imagining a future where we finally get happy ends
Find happiness in anything and everything that we believe
Apart from us, left in the dust
An artifact of atavistic history

Will you be the one who got away from me?
And you go back and forth like an ocean
Ever-changing tides 'til you ebb, no more flowing
Pull myself out from the water, easier than ever
Said I'm never going back but then you said "forever"
Or at least for the summer
You can play with my heart
Ups and downs 'til it's time to depart

Planned obsolescence, last for a moment
But I've accepted

You're not gonna stick around
If you decided overnight
That you're gonna change your mind
Wouldn't want you to fake gritted smiles to my face
Just to have you pull the rug when you're tired of my embrace
I don't want you pretending
If it's not your intent

You don't gotta stick around
If you decided overnight
That you're gonna change your mind
Wouldn't want you to fake gritted smiles to my face
Just to have you pull the rug when you're tired of my embrace
I don't want you pretending
If it's not your intent

You decided overnight
That you're better without my amity, my company
And my presence in your life
So take as long as you need, it doesn't matter 'cause you'll leave
No, I don't want you pretending
If you don't feel content

And I won't ever be sure again
Maybe in the next life
I'll meet you at the right time
And you won't ever be here again
So I guess I'll black out
'Til the memory's gone
