Gems

[Verse 1]
Think I found myself a gem
But it's too heavy to carry around
What if it pulls me down?
Don't wanna do it again
Start on over to watch it end
Is it too much for me to spend?

[Pre-Chorus]
Overload, I know that I can't control
How the tides take away the little I've made from all my homes
Never know if I'm staying here for long
I'm a little deceiving, protecting feelings
No, I don't mean it

[Chorus]
When I say I gotta go, say I gotta go
Oh, you're bringing back all those feelings
Like it's me in the wrong for leaving
Say I gotta go, say I gotta go
I can tell you it's never easy
I just wanna be home, believe me

[Verse 2]
Another room I don't know
It's like part of me isn't here
Floating around in conversations
Am I too far from you now?
Don't want you to move on, find a replacement
A constant hesitation

[Pre-Chorus]
Overload, I know that I can't control
How the tides take away the little I've made from all my homes
Never know if I'm staying here for long
I'm a little deceiving, protecting feelings
No, I don't mean it

[Chorus]
When I say I gotta go, say I gotta go
Oh, you're bringing back all those feelings
Like it's me in the wrong for leaving
Say I gotta go, say I gotta go
I can tell you it's never easy
I just wanna be home, believe me
When I say I gotta go, say I gotta go
Oh, you're bringing back all those feelings
Like it's me in the wrong for leaving
Say I gotta go, say I gotta go
I can tell you it's never easy
I just wanna be home, believe me

[Post-Chorus]
Say I gotta go, say I gotta go
But baby, if I come around
Say I gotta go, say I gotta go
No, don't go and waste my time

[Outro]
Don't go and waste my time
Don't go and waste my time
Don't go and waste my time
Don't go and waste my time
