Firewater

You sat me down beside myself To show me all the reasons I was wrong for you Was this for real, it's hard to tell 'Cause it was such a beautiful mess we had got into I'm gonna overcome this Paper hearts can't win this time And all along I should have know this It wasn't your dream, it was mine I know you wanted me to give up this life to be Everything I was back when you had the hands my heart was in I was never good at goodbye Can I swallow this bottle whole So this brain in my head can forget your face When we were starting out You believed in me without a doubt You were the finest thing that happened to a boy like me It's so much harder now I want to try and tell you how There is so much love in me Even though it's hard to see And I was never good at goodbye Can I swallow this bottle whole So this brain in my head can forget your face Can I swallow this bottle whole 'Cause I'd rather be dead than make more mistakes Today I couldn't stay awake Feels like I'm drowning in this firewater lake I won't be sleeping much tonight It's not the same without you lying by my side Right beside me Can I swallow this bottle whole So this brain in my head can forget your face Can I swallow this bottle whole 'Cause I'd rather be dead than make more mistakes I know you wanted me To give up my heart to be everything I am And you're the only thing that I can see I'm sorry, but you're not the only one for me You left me here beside myself Left me with all the reasons I was wrong for you
