lyrics

verse:
i left the lights on once again
(i can't believe i'm doing this)
the doors unlocked your meal is waiting
(my minds been replaying this all day)
i stay up just a little longer than i wished
(i can't believe you're hiding it)
hoping you'd come through the door

Prechorus:
i gotta fake what my eyes can't hide
my thoughts are throbbing to and fro
i shrug it off when you're around
i have to pretend that i don't know

Chorus:
leave your mark
come don't be shy
sloshing at the pub with your friends is what you call an alibi
common babe i'm not that dumb
now sit on down and open wide
i'll fix the knot that's in your tongue

verse 2:
you avoided me last night
(that's a total tell tale sign)
i say one word it starts a fight
(i start them just to hear you scream)
i'm not taking this again
(your bullshits flying out the window)
i'm not raising a surrender
(i'm simply calling your ass out)
