When You Go

I crawl back inside this cage
I go back inside the house
I am nothing without you
Was never much when I was with you just the same

Running out of time is not an option
Losing more than this would be unjust

So when you go
Please leave the better memories
By the door
So I can pack them with my things
And when I go
I'll try to paint the best of you
And forget the way I see you now

I go back inside my sorrow
I go back inside my head
And I'll bet you'll move into your next mistake
While I turn this over year to year

Running out of hope is not an option
Losing more of myself is all my choice

This is a one-way exchange
No time to rearrange events and make this fly
