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
