put the lock on the door

i keep going back and reading
those things we both said
cause i remember the heartbreak
that went through my head
i thought i could recognize
a tiny shred of dignity there
but i look back and capitalize
on the shit that you said, yeah

i should leave us in the past
but baby i want this back
the slamming doors echo through chamber walls
and the words that i regret
could it be that you should be with me
or should i just put the lock on the door?

i go a downward spiral
in the back of my mind
you had the key and dug a hole
and now it's buried in the ground
i keep pounding on the walls and
can you feel my heartbeat?
i'm storming out the open doors
just waiting for them to slam

i should leave us in the past
but baby i want this back
the slamming doors echo through chamber walls
and the words that i regret
could it be that you should be with me
or should i just put the lock on the door?

you locked me out
i wanted back in
it's really not fair
you shut me out
i called from within
"i don't need you"
but i do, i do
things haven't been the same
since you left me in the cold
i felt your warmth for a second
and watched it dissipate

i should leave us in the past
but baby i want this back
the slamming doors echo through chamber walls
and the words that i regret
could it be that you should be with me
or should i just put the lock on the door?

with your curls and the dark brown eyes
and the huntsman gear
and the tiny little lies
and the way i trembled with fear
whenever you'd get mad
with the fireworks smile
and the softened touch
i'd kill to feel you
touch me like that again
but i should leave us in the past
and put the lock on the door
