boy who doesn't want to

Your eyes are red
Your apartment's cold
You can act like a child but you'll still get old
The sky is blue
The cause is lost
And I could cry like a bitch or I could get gone

Or I could keep trying, keep trying forever
Hang on to hopeless endeavours
Like wanting you to do better
They never get better

It won't ever snow in August
The leaves won't fall in spring
And I could try to love you harder
But it wouldn't do a thing
I could crush a hundred spiders, but I can't control the rain
And a boy who doesn't want to is never gonna change

Put down the cup
Let's go to bed
I wish you'd, uh, me the way that you fuck with my head

I could sit, I could wait, be your ball on a chain
I could beg, I could cry, I could dream, I could pray
That one day you'll wake up and get your act together
But they never get better

It won't ever snow in August
The leaves won't fall in spring
And I could try to love you harder
But it wouldn't do a thing
I could crush a hundred spiders, but I can't control the rain
And a boy who doesn't want to is never gonna change

I'd never try to stop the Sun from rising
So why'm I tryna stop the boy from lying?
Only gonna end up driving me insane
I'd never try to stop the world from turning
So why'm I tryna stop the boy from hurting?
Why'm I tryna mess with something I can't change?
No, I can't change

That it won't ever snow in August
The leaves won't fall in spring
And I could try to love you harder
But it wouldn't do a thing
I could crush a hundred spiders, but I can't control the rain
And a boy who doesn't want to is never gonna
No, a boy who doesn't want to is never gonna change
