Call It Living Lyrics

These careful nights there by the phone

Not planning to make a fool of yourself again

But it burns so bright somewhere in your soul

Got you running to take

Got you running away from anyone else

What did it mean when

You said you needed space

The world is wild, the road is bent

Towards another human face

I don't want to live like this anymore

Can't call it living

Don't know what I was waiting for

It starts with forgiving you

These wishful thoughts of rekindled fire

Of fingertips and sighs and warm embraces

The mind gets caught up in telling lies

Yeah the heart is a liar, it plays with the truth

It traffics in pain and erasing

What did it mean when

You said you'd rather not

Dwell on the past

When the past is all we have

It's all we've got

I don't want to live like this anymore

Can't call it living

Don't know what I was waiting for

It starts with forgiving

And I don't want to live like this anymore

What the hell was I waiting for
