Before the thought of getting out, and finding my own feet
Made me think that's how I'd feel more complete
Now I stumble to an empty house
I'm so damn cold, engulfed with doubt
And I cannot remember why I moved out
I know I promised you that
I'd watch what I eat and drink
But takeaway containers
Are piling in the sink
I know I promised you both
That I would make you proud
I'm trying things I know
That you'd never allow
Sydney knew how to seduce
With all her pretty lights
She encouraged me to open up
My small town naive eyes
Now I can't un-see what I have seen
I can't un-do where I have been
I walk an extra hour in the rain
To follow the streetlights coz a girls never safe no
I know I promised you that
I'd watch what I eat and drink
But takeaway containers
Are piling in the sink
I know I promised you both
That I would make you proud
I'm trying things I know
That you'd never allow
I'm sorry that I haven't been answering my phone
I just needed some reflective time alone
When I hear your voice break through the line
It plays with my mind
I'd do anything to mean it when I say "I'm fine"
I know I promised you that
I'd watch what I eat and drink
But takeaway containers
Are piling in the sink
I know I promised you both
That I would make you proud
I'm trying things I know
That you'd never allow
