It's a funny way to find you up to something So I'm staring at the floor And your folks are thinking nothing of it This whole thing is just a picture on the wall So I take it down and leave without a word The truth will always hurt no matter what it's worth Maybe when I get back home You'll tell them I'm absurd We'll call it a day, it's better off this way Just give me a reason To be fighting when I'm leaving If I'm leaving for a while Find yourself a reason To be crying when I'm gone I'm not holding on It's funny how you never see it coming So I'm dancing in the dark What's the use in fighting over something When you don't know where you're coming from? What you know about love? What you know about it now you're all messed up? Tell yourself a story to go to sleep at night And lay wide awake, rolling in the light Just give me a reason To be fighting when I'm leaving If I'm leaving for a while Find yourself a reason To be crying when I'm gone I'm not holding on I can't find the tune You can't find the time It's once in a while We're doing it right Heaven knows we tried But the devil's on my mind Just give me a reason To be fighting when I'm leaving If I'm leaving for a while Find yourself a reason To be crying when I'm gone I'm not holding on I'm not holding on I'm not holding on
