"Back There Now" lyrics

When you say you miss me
Are you thinking of someone else?
Set foot in the lobby
And I knew that I was in for hell

I would've stayed until the lights went out
Forty stories till I hit the ground
You couldn't pay me to go back there now
So I tell myself so it might come true

Was the greatest deception
All the pain that I put me through?
I was stuck in the city
I was still in love with you

I would've stayed until the lights went out
Forty stories till I hit the ground
You couldn't pay me to go back there now
So I tell myself so it might come true

All that crying couldn't calm me down
Said I'm fine to hear the words out loud
You couldn't pay me to go back there now
So I tell myself so it might come true

You had a death wish, I already know
I wanted to believe that I was out of control
Sometimes I miss you, but I already know
A boy like you would hang me if I gave you the rope

I would've stayed until the lights went out
Forty stories till I hit the ground
You couldn't pay me to go back there now
So I tell myself so it might come true

All that crying couldn't calm me down
Said I'm fine to hear the words out loud
You couldn't pay me to go back there now
So I tell myself so it might come true

You had a death wish, I already know
You put me back there now
I wanted to believe that I was out of control
Sometimes I miss you, but I already know
You put me back there now
A boy like you would hang me if I gave you the rope
