[Verse 1]
I've been trying but it's no use
To lock up all these feelings inside me
Now I'm tired of excuses
The time has come for you to decide
[Hook]
Oh will you lay down beside me?
Or let this situation divide us?
[Chorus:]
You only love me when I'm leaving
When I'm breaking down, I'm screaming
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
You only want to meet when it's too late
When all memories has begin to fate
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
[Verse 2]
And I don't know what I say
This is not way that loves supposed to feel
I thought I wanted to escape but
The truth has already been hidden
Now the silence suffocates us
And we can't relay to the pain that we're fighting
Let's put a side of expectation
Of each other, long enough to see the scenes
You only love me when I'm leaving
When I'm breaking down, I'm screaming
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
You only want to meet when it's too late
When all memories has begin to fate
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
[Bridge]
I try to speak
But the right words don't never come out
I'm begging and pleadin' [?]
I'm drowning in dawn, though
You try to please me, this was never easy
I won't never see you reaching out
You only love me when I'm leaving
When I'm breaking down, I'm screaming
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
You only want to meet when it's too late
When all memories has begin to fate
This is not the way that loves supposed to feel
