The Ponytail Parades

The Ponytail Parades - Emery

Three sleepless nights

This isn't how it's supposed to be

But you're so good at

Taking your time

To get back to me

I will wait for you forever

If you would just ask me

I thought that i could change you

But you changed me

It doesn't feel right

Holding someone else's hand

Together on phone lines

And living at two opposite ends

It scares me to think

That you could find takers

Other than me

And better than me

But your head is elsewhere

And i'm talking enough for both of us

When will you see it's not

(it's not) so easy for me

You careless

And whispered

Insulting

And bruising

And i thought

That you said

Things were improving

These laces are untied

But my feet are still walking away

Away

I never thought that you

Could say these words

Is this really happening

I never thought that you

Could say these words

Is this really happening

I never thought that you

Could say these words

Is this really happening

I never thought that you

Could say these words

Is this really happening

I never thought that you

Could say these words

Is this really happening

Erase my name from this page

How can you take all these days

And throw them away

As i sit here waiting for you for you

I stay up nights

Until stars leave the sky

Knowing what my dreams can take away

Walk away from me this night is done
