Isn't it funny how I was nearly falling now
Trying to wrap my head around you?
You kept me running knowing I could never take you down
Always trailing right behind you
And I wish I never did it
And I wish I never knew
Did it ever even happen if there's no proof?
You know I'm happy now, still, you like to come around
Even when it's telling the truth
Chasing it back to the start
For some reason, the car never made it out of park

It's not easy how you linger on me
All the words that we left unsaid got underneath my skin
Call me crazy, I feel the tables turning
I feel the tables turning
I'm the one playing in your head when you can't sleep

Isn't it funny I'm thinking of another time
Sneaking out so I could see you?
Though you were never mine, maybe in another life
You might even see the plans through
And I wish I could forget it, but the wishing doesn't change
Kinda wish that you would call me when you're in LA
'Cause if we talk it out, nothing left to talk about
Maybe I just need a clean break

It's not easy how you linger on me
All the words that we left unsaid got underneath my skin
Call me crazy
I feel the tables turning
I'm the one playing in your head when you can't sleep

I pictured us getting older
I pictured us, but I get it now
I was hanging on to potential
I pictured you moving closer
Just seventeen, would've settled down
Was hanging on to potential (oh)

It's not easy how you linger on me

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
