I said I'd wait and, I'd stay but The tether, It took all the weight And it started to fray Words that were spoken They lingered like dust We're so settled in motion We came apart Like how we came together Just being with you was like falling from heaven My chest grows tighter When day turns to night And I'm sleeping alone I'm always Playing your waiting games You had me and you hurt me And I'm tired of hollow sorries I was bargaining my heart for you Like it was all that I was born to do Understanding devotion It came to me when I got broken Cause no one can bottle the ocean Counting the waves and the changes And learning your ways And how you embrace them Those were my drowning days Playing your waiting games You had me and you hurt me And I'm tired of hollow sorries I was bargaining my heart for you Like it was all that I was born to do Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Oh the drowning days Those were my drowning days Playing your waiting games I was bargaining my heart for you Like it was all that I was born to do
