 -  -  -  x2
 (Verse 1)
I  set all my regrets on fire
 Cause I know  I'll never take the time
To  unpack my missteps and call  all of our friends
 I figure  they would take your side
 (Pre Chorus)
 I make the bed,  just not that well
 Your name comes up  a lot
 When I talk  to my mom
 Oh, I think  she can tell
 (CHORUS)
 I was out  on the town
 
 So I came to your window last night
 I tried not  to throw stones
 
 But I wanted to come inside
 
 Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
 Oh no,  what  have I done?
 There's no  one to keep me warm
 -  -  -
 (Verse 2)
 So maybe  I should put up a fight
 I'll call them back  and borrow a box knife
 So I  can learn to live with all  the stupid s*** I've been doing  since '99
 And I know  I could be more clever
 
 And I know I could be more strong
 But I'm waiting  for the day you come  back and say
 "Hey, maybe  I should change my mind"
 I drink  a lot
 I'm not sure  if that's new
 But these days  when I wake up from a night I  forgot
 I just wish  that it never came true
 (CHORUS)x2
 I was out  on the town
 
 So I came to your window last night
 I tried not  to throw stones
 
 But I wanted to come inside
 
 Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
 Oh no,  what  have I done?
 There's no  one to keep me warm
 (C-part)
 And I know  I could be more clever
 And I know  I could be more strong
 And I know  I could be more clever
 And I know  I could be more clever
 
 I knew there would come a day when all was said and done
 (And I know I could be more clever)
 Everything I was  is everything but gone
 (And I know I could be more strong)
 
 All my big mistakes are bouncing off your wall
 (And I know I could be more clever)
 The bottles never break,  the sorrow never comes
 (And I know I could be more clever)
 
 So come on let me in, I will be the sun
 (And I know I could be more clever)
 I will wake you up,  I am who I was
 (And I know I could be more strong)
 
 Just open up your heart, open up your heart, open up your heart
 (And I know I could be more clever
 And I know I could be more)
 -
 (Chorus)
 I was out  on the town
 
 So I came to your window last night
 I tried not  to throw stones
 
 But I wanted to come inside
 
 Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
 Oh no,  what  have I done?
 There's no  one to keep me warm
