I have been waiting by the window in the dark Keeping quiet, sat listening for your car A quiet panic that you’re never coming home Don’t like who you make me But I know it’s not your fault Am I better off alone Give you up and crawl back home Instead of waiting at your door Like a good dog that you don’t want Sit on the couch and cry it off Convince myself it’s what I want It’s what I want Better to call it if I know it’s gonna go Don’t want you to hate me when I get to be too much I don’t want to be angry when you did nothing wrong Baring teeth just out of fear To scare you off Am I better off alone Give you up and crawl back home Instead of waiting at your door Like a good dog that you don’t want Sit on the curb and cry it off Convince myself it’s what I want It’s what I want And I know you think I'm some designer breed But I'm just a rescue you‘d find on the street I been scratching at the door and making myself bleed 'Cause everybody leaves Everybody leaves Think I'm better off alone Giving up and going home Instead of waiting at your door A stupid dog that never learns Get on the phone and call my mom Let her tell me I fucked up That I was wrong What I want’s a change of heart Be strong enough to bear it all Not be so tortured by my thoughts About what can happen while you’re gone What I want is you back home Wrapped up in my arms That’s what I want
