lyrics

i would lay with you while the flood rushed in
i would lay with you for all time
show me where you break, I will show you my mistakes
i could keep your hurt with mine

but how quickly things can change, in an instant things can change
there are clouds where there was always sun
tell me, when you’re out don’t you miss me?
do you doubt saying goodbye? Or do you only feel your high

i go to parties like I don’t need anybody
then I only miss you more
excited faces, unfamiliar places
i will try to forget it was me who you adored

cigarette in hand, whiskey always in demand
when did you get so good at being bad?
maybe you can’t deal with this tenderness I feel
another shot, another line, you’re swept away

strangers in the street
what if we were to meet
i could still be down
to just drink and hang around

tell me how to forget you don’t want me anymore
