lyrics

I gave the last of my insides away, like my mother used to
I swore and I swore to everyone I thought could hear, there is someone who will be gentle with you

I can’t afford the medicine that might help me feel better
I wonder if you thought that it was kind to tell me nothing lasts forever
There are times when I just get so tired of waking up
Let the sweat in my sheets set me free when it fills my lungs

When you laid your hands on me, I wonder if you knew any different
We live and we die and we learn, or at least we try at some kind of persistence
And I’ve felt like this every day the last few years
Why did you ever get sober if this is how being sober feels
If there’s a reason that we’re always hungry then what does it weigh?
And if we’re so goddamned easy to leave, why would anyone stay?

Someday I’ll call from an empty bar, to tell you I’m sorry
I won’t admit that I know what I did wrong, but I still hope you’ll believe me
