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

Cuz 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 wanna 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

Cuz 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

Cuz 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
