Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
Yeah you're taking me back and the paranoid thoughts
Start creeping in slowly, don't wanna get caught
But you're speaking in tongues
And my heart it burns
My hands are shaking, where do I turn
Need to escape, need to break my thoughts
Patterns emerge when I'm feeling lost
And the darkness just surrounds me
It just surrounds me
I wanna wake up next to you
Come on, tell me that it's true
And I know you feel it too
Baby why'd you go so soon
Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
Do you remember every word I said
As I held you close, while you weeped in bed
And do you remember every single lie
Cause I sure do, now tell me why
Do you feel like this
Are you bruised like this
Did someone leave you out to die
And leave you nude like this
Call you rude like this
Start a feud like this
Well it could be me
And I guess I'll admit
I'm a little bit erratic, but I'm personable
I'm a little bit dramatic, yeah it's questionable
Yeah it's questionable
And all I know is
I wanna wake up next to you
Come on, tell me that it's true
And I know you feel it too
Baby why'd you go so soon
Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
Well I was taken by surprise
You didn't wanna make it out alive
And it didn't matter how hard that I tried
You told me that you'd rather live a lie
