That, I guess that is that
I am back to believing no ugly deceiving life hacks
Water the plants
The dirt was dry and I’m growing as twice as fast as you did try
To grow me and shoot me up high
But it felt more like suppression so I put up a fight
Walls so thick
Bolder than lipstick
If you’re feeling sad
Then hold me to that
(And you asked me)
Why did you leave if you were never really there
Why did I expect you to stay if you were never really there
I said I needed to leave cause I was never really there
In the first place
What’s new
Country boy
Stay glum til a new girl charges ya ego to the sun
While I stray far away
You still think I’m running from the best thing I had
You’re wrong in every way
But I act like you could be right
Cause it makes ya feel better
Helps you sleep at night
(And you asked me)
Why did you leave if you were never really there
Why did I expect you to stay if you were never really there
I said I needed to leave cause I was never really there
My lips were covered
I could not make a sound
Well I only just discovered your love was pushing me down
No love
Felt in your arms
Dominated by your words enough
That I wasn’t worth more than your messed up love
(I said)
I needed to leave immediately from this shit hole
You’ve wondered why so often I came off as cold
But your indirect attention to turn success into flaws
I couldn’t live a life feeling so very withdrawn
I needed to leave cause I was never really there anymore

Don't Do Cocaine

Could've been your bitch
Could've been anything you wanted me to be
Held up to the light
There is always spite
Which one did you grow in
Better than before
I am in a spot of spilling drinks
Profound dumb talking
Countless advice remains like
Don't do cocaine!
You’re gonna do it anyway
Took the biggest breath
Drank my drink and left your world
Your sad shelter
I was running fast
Frightening look back
But you need a life without that
Munted mentored days
See you in three babe
Oh it was just a hangover from feeling misled
While you've been sitting on the backbones of who you ought to be I've been strumming to strangers who I beg to please
Fill me with treason
Everyone's starting to believe it but I remember dog walking and catching your fevers
