i woke up that morning
and she had a gun
pointed right at my head
i said either way
one of us
ain't getting out of this bed
she drew her fingers through my hair
and said "i'm already a ghost"
as i saw my lies
reflected in her eyes
i couldn't tell which of us
i hated the most
CHORUS:
cause we drink all day
and we fight all night
it seems
and we stumble 'round
like someone tore down
our dreams
if there's a heaven
you said you never could
tell
ah but that's bullshit
cause you already live in hell
i walked in to a pitch black house
a knife pointed at my throat
i coughed a little and said either way
one of us
is bound to choke
she bit my neck and whispered next
"you're only dumb when you think you're so smart"
deep inside
i apologized
for finishing things
i never could start
CHORUS
take
everything you can
find
when you go
please just leave me behind
i will bury myself in the dirt
i will cut out my own tongue
someday it's not gonna hurt
when i remember
being young
CHORUS
i woke up that morning
and she had a gun pointed
right at my head
