This Bad Decision

keep a light burning in the window
so the time you lost
and the faith you lost
and the love you lost
can come back home to roost
my undoing un-understood
thought i did the best that i could
take it slow, temporary home
and let it go
i don’t wanna stay here
i just wanna lay here for a while
keep your friends close until they leave you
when the time’s the worst
and it hurts the worst
and you’d do your worst
to keep them from the truth
all that healing un-undertook
all those years, not one backwards look
but now i know, temporary home
i let it go
i don’t wanna live here
i just wanna sit here for a while
because this bad decision
has the power to erase
all the stupid things i said to you
when you were in my place
