"String By" lyrics

"String By"

Laying awake in your bed
Hiding myself from the things you did
These past months I've tried
To bury my head in the sand

Last night I told you I'm out
Though part of me wants you still around
But not a toy on a string
Just to drag around

Cause when you call me up
At 2 am
Crying that you need me again
Fluttering your eyes
And pulling me in
You sure know how to make me sin
No, I won't go
And I won't fall for it this time
So you're best to go
Find someone else to string by

Each night I wait for the ring
Of my telephone laying next to me
You lie and say you've changed
But your voice still comforts me

Lord send me away from this woman or planet
I'd gladly aboard the next rocket
If I'm honest
'Cause I can't escape the devil that's whispering to me
And won't let me leave

Cause when you call me up
At 2 am
Crying that you need me again
Fluttering your eyes
And pulling me in
You sure know how to make me sin
No, I won't go
And I won't fall for it this time
So you're best to go
Find someone else to string by

So you're best to go
Find someone else to string by
