Drop the Girl - Burn After Reading

Empty nights leave my mind to roam
Six calls and an hour ride back home
My grip is tight but I'm wearing thin
This rope is burning through my skin
I'm tired of trying to keep you around
When you never wanted to be tied down

Tell me the truth
Even if it hurts me
Tell me the truth
Even if it

If you wanna get out
Get out
Don't burn the bridge behind you
If you wanna let go
Let go
I won't be left behind too
I won't be left standing in the ashes
I'll be your box of matches
I'll be your box of matches

Wake me up when your dream is over
Call me when you're feeling sober
I was always there when you were down
Now i refuse to watch you drown
I can't stand to see
The mess you made
We'll find out how fast
A star can fade

Tell me the truth
Even if it hurts me
Tell me the truth
Even if it

If you wanna get out
Get out
Don't burn the bridge behind you
If you wanna let go
Let go
I won't be left behind too
I won't be left standing in the ashes
I'll be your box of matches
I'll be your box of matches

And at your age I thought you'd have
A sense of decency
If you had to go
How dare you leave so easily
Now sit back and think about
The lesson you learned
Cause you know this time
It's my bridge to burn

If you wanna get out
Get out
Don't burn the bridge behind you
If you wanna let go
Let go
I won't be left behind too

If you wanna get out
Get out
Don't burn the bridge behind you
If you wanna let go
Let go
I won't be left behind too
I won't be left standing in the ashes
I'll be your box of matches
I'll be your box of matches
