I picked apart my open sores
Wounds and flesh like open doors
This emptiness felt like home
With tongue and cheek you made it worse
Thought we'd stumble on your words
Your eagerness stole the show
Oh mercy me, I'm exactly where I'm suppose to be
Now watch it slip away, as you leave
Oh mercy me I was wondering if you'd like to see
Me throw it all away, I let you leave
Push and pulled to fill the void
Wrapped my head in quiet noise
The sound remains as you go
We watched you twist at every turn
Reinvent the lessons learned
Just know the ache starts out slow
Oh mercy me, I'm exactly where I'm suppose to be
Now watch it slip away, as you leave
Oh mercy me I was wondering if you'd like to see
Me throw it all away, I let you leave
I should have known, (What) You've always been
Oh mercy me, I'm exactly where I'm suppose to be
Now watch it slip away, as you leave
Oh mercy me I was wondering if you'd like to see
Me throw it all away, I let you leave
