Say leave

If that's what you want from me

And I'll pack my bags and go

Drive out past the county lines

And you'll sleep alone

No hard questions from my soft lips

The ones you swore to me you'd kill to kiss

If you're asking to end this, then please say leave

You walked into a party still had smoke in your mouth

The light was dancing you like a fire broke out

I was silent in the corner

Like a funeral mourner

Watching everything I'd ever been without you fall away

Fall away

It was a desperate drug

I could never get enough

There was something I could touch in you

that touched in me a person who

I wanted to uncover

You were more than just a lover

You were infinite and so was I

and so were we or so I believed

Ooh

Turned us both to stone 45 feet thick

You're amazing my Medusa, you're a magic trick

I turned the other cheek a few too many times

My angel, my Medusa give me one more smile and then please

I won't plead my case to change your mind

no use for that now

I'll fade into the background so someday you can say how

Undeniable the end became

How we both could see it coming

But the truth is much more cruel

If I'd have seen it, I'd be running to you

Wrapped you in my arms

Built a castle made of armor

Hide us both away

I'd have done anything to save us

Burn cities to the ground

To keep that vicious word out of your mouth

But here I am my blinding love and me

Turned us both to stone 45 feet thick

You're amazing my Medusa, you're a magic trick

I turned the other cheek a few too many times

My angel, my Medusa give me one more smile

and then please say it to me

Say leave

If that's what you want from me

And I'll have to give you that

I'll drive out past the county lines and I won't look back

And these wounds are gonna heal

And some mystery will be revealed

But I'll never be the same 'cause of a love that didn't stay

To which I'd never have been the one to say leave
