Lyrics to String By

[Verse 1]

Layin' awake in your bed

Hidin' myself from the things you did

These past months I've tried

To bury my head in the sand

Last night I told you I'm out

Though part of me wants you still around

But I'm not a toy on a string just to drag around



[Chorus]

'Cause when you call me up

At 2 a.m.

Crying that you need me again

Flutterin' your eyes and pullin' me in

You sure know how to make me sin

No, I won't go

And I won't fall for it this time

So you best to go find someone else to string by



[Verse 2]

Each night I wait for the ring

Of my telephone layin' next to me

You lie and say you've changed, but your voice still comforts me



[Bridge]

Lord, send me away from this woman or planet

I'd gladly aboard thе next rocket, if I'm honest

'Causе I can't escape the devil that's whisperin' to me

And won't let me leave



[Chorus]

'Cause when you call me up

At 2 a.m.

Crying that you need me again

Flutterin' your eyes and pullin' me in

You sure know how to make me sin

No, I won't go

And I won't fall for it this time

So you best to go find someone else to string by



[Outro]

So you best to go find someone else to string by
