[Verse 1] Hold your head straight
Don't ever let it down you'll break
Falling in the same old ways
I don't think I need you

We used to be great always
We used to say forever always
We used to say promise you'll stay
But I don't think I need you

[Chorus] So, lay me down in darkness, and
Pick me up in Austin
Spit me out in New York
Don't you ever let me go
And I'll, wait for you on your street
By the blue door you will find me
This time we'll be different
Don't you ever let me go
Don't you ever let me go

[Verse 2] No I won't change
I'm gonna let you down always
Hold me but I know we'll break
I don't think I need you

It's gonna be better they say
You do belong together they say
I can't believe I'm telling you babe
I don't think I need you

[Chorus] So, lay me down in darkness, and
Pick me up in Austin
Spit me out in New York
Don't you ever let me go
And I'll, wait for you on your street
By the blue door you will find me
This time we'll be different
Don't you ever let me go

[Bridge] I'm always gonna wait for you
Baby don't you ever let me go
I'm always gonna wait for you
Don't you ever let me go
I'm always gonna wait for you
Don't you ever let me go
I'm always gonna wait for you
Don't you ever let me go

[Chorus] So, lay me down in darkness, and
Pick me up in Austin
Spit me out in New York
Don't you ever let me go
And I'll, wait for you on your street
By the blue door you will find me
This time we'll be different
Don't you ever let me go

[Outro] Lay me down in darkness, and
Pick me up in Austin
Spit me out in New York
Don't you ever let me go
