Quiet Light - When I Left Your Waiting Room

Oh I tried for years to write you a song
But each time I'd try to write it
It'd come out wrong
When I was younger I was so blind
I couldn't read between the lines and instead I'd just cry
Instead I'd just cry
Oh I used to look in the mirror and ask myself
Why I wasn't pretty like her
And I was always somewhat empty inside
But even the empty feel more empty when they cry
Oh I was so empty

Oh and if you would think to just tell me the truth
Hurt my feelings just once so I could get over you
I was everywhere, nothingness, falling apart
I was dumb as a rock, didn't know where to start
Now I'm older, not wiser, but been through this more
Don't know what I was thinking
Don't know if I was thinking
Oh you had me everywhere, you had me everywhere
You were here, you were there, but I was everywhere

There's no need to say sorry
It wasn't your fault
It's my own self delusion
I just got caught
But when you were here, I was here
When you were there, I was there
When you were here, I was here
When you were there, I was there
And leaving your waiting room was so hard for me
To let go and to tune into reality
I couldn't tell you what was going through my head
But when I left your waiting room, I was half dead
I left your waiting room half dead
I left your waiting room half dead
I left your waiting room half dead
