Never Ready to Leave

This room's been dusted

And it's covered in prints from

The month you spent with me.

And I've cataloged it,

Arranged the report with a chapter every week

And I've studied sleepless

Biting my nails and grinding my teeth.

And I think I've had it,

But that makes two of us,

'Cause you've had it with me.

And here in the meantime,

I'm a fly on the wall, and glued to the action.

A twist in the plotline,

A demand for a call, the loss of attraction.

And I'll tell you the worst part:

You're exactly the way that I thought you would be

So I'll staple the last call

'Cause I'll move away, but I'm never ready to leave.

Whoa, whoa.

I'll move away but I'm never ready to leave.

This house is haunted

But not in the way that you've always heard it said

And I'll dust the attic

No razor teeth making camp beneath your bed.

But I've heard them walking late at night

With twins of confusion and regret

And they share ths stories of things that I have done

That I'd rather just forget.

Here in the meantime,

I'm a fly on the wall, and glued to the action.

A twist in the plotline,

A demand for a call, the loss of attraction.

And I'll tell you the worst part:

You're exactly the way that I thought you would be

So I'll staple the last call

So I'll move away but I'm never ready to leave.

(I'll move away but I'm never ready to leave.)

So this is how it feels to be 24

A thief without a key to an open the door

Just peering through the window

For any clue,

Or anything explaining a part of you.

I guess the real question is, I don't know,

Is, why I am afraid of letting go?

Why am I afraid of letting go?

Here in the meantime,

I'm a fly on the wall, and glued to the action.

A twist in the plotline,

A demand for a call, a loss of attraction.

And I'll tell you the worst part:

You're exactly the way that I thought you would be

So I'll staple the last call

Cause I'd move away but I'm never ready to leave.

Whoa, whoa

Well I'll move away but I'm never ready to leave.

Cause I'd move away but I'm never ready to leave.

Well I'd move away but I'm never ready to leave.
