[Verse 1]

I know what's wrong, I know what's right

I see the truth, but I stay blind

I say I'm fine, but I know there's no hope inside

Can't even take my own advice

Even though you've been showing signs

Maybe you go your way and so will I

[Pre-Chorus]

Now I'm sitting in a car that I won't start

Maybe I got too much to say right now

Like I'm paralyzed from the waist down

Why is it so hard?

[Chorus]

'Cause every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

I know I know better

But something just won't let up, let up

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

Yeah

[Verse 2]

Was it a fight we never had?

Was there a good in all the bad?

Is it enough for me to never want to come back? Oh, yeah

Maybe I'm running from a truth

But baby, I blame it all on you

It's really me, but all my pride would never say that

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'm sitting in a car that I won't start (Won't start)

Maybe I got nothing to say right now

Like I'm paralyzed from the waist down

Why is it so hard?

[Chorus]

'Cause every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

I know I know better (Better)

But something just won't let up, let up

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

[Outro]

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

Telling me I need you in my life

Mmm, yeah

Every time I try to leave, something keep pulling me back

Telling me I need you in my life

Need you in my life
