Sanctuary

Thought we said this was over

Never thought it'd last any longer than that

But I wish we weren't stone cold sober

'Cause I still think about the nights we had

I reserved the right to love you, through all the times you didn't want me to

And I'm trying you're lying, now I'm lying here alone

So don't be calling me up in the middle of the night whilst I'm all choked up and you feel alright

I don't wanna know who you slept with last night or the girl next door, how she missed her flight

I don't care about the dreams we had when we wanted to run away to annoy your dad, but you said your ma'd miss you and you'd still feel bad

So we said "fuck that"

And then, look you just went and let me go, so

I'm not your sanctuary

I'm not your light in the dark

I'm not your one call away but you said you never loved me anyway

You're fine on your own, it's a fresh start

But don't run back to me with that broken heart

'Cause i'm not yours, now I'll never be, yeah

But who cares? you fucked with my heart

I never wanted to cause another problem with you

I was hovering close 'cause you said you wanted me to

Fill another page with the feelings you left me

And write a fucking song to make it feel less heavy

I burnt the house down

Poured bleach on your best gown

I guess you could call this a funeral, you're a ghost to me now

No you're not worth my time, and I hope the guy you've found breaks your heart 10 times

You're, you're not the woman that I want in my life anyway

You said that you're the one, nah I'm the one that made the mistake

Now that sounds right, but you sure put up a fight

I'm not your sanctuary

I'm not your light in the dark

I'm not your one call away but you said you never loved me anyway

You're fine on your own, it's a fresh start

But don't run back to me with that broken heart

'Cause i'm not yours, now I'll never be, yeah

But who cares? you fucked with my heart

And I messed up too but I was good to you,

You turned my happy days to shades of blue

You hate my friends, well I hate yours too

I'm just glad that we all saw the worst of you

I'm not your sanctuary

I'm not your light in the dark

I'm not your one call away but you said you never loved me anyway

You're fine on your own, it's a fresh start

But don't run back to me with that broken heart

'Cause i'm not yours, now I'll never be, yeah

But who cares? you fucked with my heart

I'm not your sanctuary

I'm not your light in the dark

I'm not your one call away but you said you never loved me anyway

You're fine on your own, it's a fresh start

But don't run back to me with that broken heart

'Cause i'm not yours, now I'll never be, yeah

But who cares? you fucked with my heart
