Tekster: Just Surrender. Phoenix. Better To Leave.


So let's set the scene
He walked out to a busy street
In the summer heat
Hazy from the night before
Not the type to spend one alone
Even though he knows
Come the morning, he'll be gone
Just moving on

She awoke in an empty bed
The sting of regret
Creeping into every bone
On the nightstand, a note that read:
"Girl, I won't be back,
you deserve better than that"
She would cry if she could lie to herself
'Cause she's used to the first time
Always bein' her last

[Chorus]
Can you see it drippin' down from her lips
Dancin' on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides
Deep inside, in her eyes?
This is all just what it seems
Gimme just another dream
Could be that the end doesn't always
Just justify the means
Sometimes it's better to just leave [x2]

So let's set this straight
Two weeks later, he's back again
City of sin
And she's acting out her role
She arrives a touch at the waist
To another pretty face
And she's takin' this one home
She will lie, and he will buy her lines
'Cause you were never the first
She tries that shit all the time

[Chorus]
Can you see it drippin' down from her lips
Dancin' on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides
Deep inside, in her eyes?
This is all just what it seems
Gimme just another dream
Could be that the end doesn't always
Just justify the means
Sometimes it's better to just leave

She's so afraid of what she's become
She's beggin' just to feel something for anyone
Nothing can stand, but she's made up her
Mind is all, I can't hang on now
She is on her own
Get out while you still have some heart left
You can't say "so long" with no hope

[Chorus]
Can you see it drippin' down from her lips
Dancin' on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides
Deep inside, in her eyes?
This is all just what it seems
Gimme just another dream
Could be that the end doesn't always
Just justify the means
Sometimes it's better to just leave [x5]
