lyrics

We’re playing a game
So why are you yelling?
In this room you can’t be
So excuses fall to me

I say, really he’s ok
But just in case, can’t let you walk away
And I hate this part
Your demons gnaw at my heart

Now I’m convinced
I’m your level when you’ve got the spins
If I say bye, you’d die
It’s a lie, but I had to try

We’re playing a losing game
knew it before I knew your name

We stumble home
And I should’ve known
The silence is fraught, you ask
“Am I your forever or not?”

I don’t know
Know what I hope

Hole shaped like a fist in your pontiac g6
4am at st joe’s because I tried to go

You hit me with the sad eyes
But your sweet talk is a lie
Look at me I got rope burns
Tied up in your words

Mostly it’s you, but mostly it’s me
cause I begged you to let me see
The floor of your childhood home
The things you do when you’re alone

You may have punched holes in my life raft
But I asked
