Inklings - Holding Out Lyrics

At the end of the night
Not that anyone knows
I'm not looking to fight
But you're drunk I suppose
Think you're getting in right
When you're talking it shows
But it's everyone's fault but your own

Back at home you would sit
an emotional drain
Instead of looking to fix
you would rather complain
You would joke We should split""
When reality came
You're the victim of course
Should have known

Tell me why
That I care?

I'm guess it's over now
The one that got away
You know I've been holding out
To see what you would say
I'm guessing you want me gone
Or there would be a sign
You know I've been missing when
You said that you were mine

I drove us away
From the city we lived
To the dust and the hay
To the place that I missed
Still a year to the day
With the girl that I kissed
You're a stranger that lives in the town

You've taken a lot and nobody knows
You've taken a lot, you're drunk I suppose
You've taken a lot and now that it shows
I'm wondering why that I care

Tell me why
That I care...

I'm guess it's over now
The one that got away
You know I've been holding out
To see what you would say
I'm guessing you want me gone
Or there would be a sign
You know I've been missing when
You said that you were mine

Breathe in
Go to say a word
You can't be heard
Breathe in
Go to say a word
You can't be heard

Tell me why
That I care...

Tell me why
That I care...

I'm guess it's over now
The one that got away
You know I've been holding out
To see what you would say
I'm guessing you want me gone
Or there would be a sign
You know I've been missing when
You said that you were mine
