Temper Lyrics by Hold Close

I Was Never Meant To Stay

2016

I'm falling back on everything
Reaching out with broken fingers, but there's nothing left for me
But there's nothing left for me
This empty hole of judgment, this place that you call home
I told myself I'd never let this go but that's all I've ever known

Fuck all the pressure
That's pushing down on my head
Since the day you left with him instead, I'm doing all I can
To get over this But it's not the same
I've suffered through a year of hate, so give or take
Don't do this to me

Just push it away like you learned from you father, You're the one mistake I've grown to fond of
I can't ignore the anger the memories trigger, I am not myself I can't control my temper
What is it that you can't see?
Seeking words that you'll believe
You were everything to me
You were everything to me

Fuck all the pressure
That's pushing down on my head
Since the day you left with him instead, I'm doing all I can
To get over this But it's not the same
I've suffered through a year of hate, so give or take
Don't do this to me

Please call me back and let me know, I've told myself I can't do this alone
But I'm better off on my own
Please call me back and let me know, I've told myself I can't do this alone
But I'm better off
Please call me back and let me know, I've told myself I can't do this alone
I can't do this alone
Please call me back and let me know, I've told my self I can't do this alone
But I'm better off
On my own
