Not Really an Apology

from Taking Sides (album) by Court Hoang

/

lyrics

won't you take me home
there's nowhere left to go
there's nowhere else i want to go
and will you wait outside
as the door is closing
when the moon is falling from the sky

because i won't let you in
i tried to make pretend
that we were partners in this war
but now my flag's been flown
i'm never fighting for peace
i'm never fighting for the chance to begin

and i know that's not okay
yeah, i know it's not okay
i don't know what to say

leave your coat with me
when you need to breathe
and i can still believe in you
but when the clocks are gone
will you stay in my thoughts
will you stay in my heart until the end

because in the streets i walk
i can't hear you call
when my wheels are turned around
so help me try to see
when there's no one in reach
when there's nothing in my head but me

because you know i'm not all right
yeah, you know i'm not all right
so why'd'you look so surprised?

in the falling snow
my thoughts are falling low
so won't you please just take me home
i'll never try to be
the kind of person you'd meet
the kind of person that you'd see
on the street
i promise i'll be discreet
