Tell Me

If you feel that I’ve been unfair
now’s the time to share your side with me.
‘Cause the past will likely stay there,
so if you still care at all about me tell me.
If you feel that I’ve been unaware,
that I’m numb and I don’t care, well it’s really half true.
I’ve given up on me, I’ve given up being happy just to give it all to you.
But you don’t listen well,
you’d rather see me go to hell
than to talk some sense with me.
I might never forgive you,
for what you put me through,
but we’ll both still breathe and I’ll be angry.
If you feel that I’ve been unfair
now’s the time to share your side with me.

It Won't Be Long

I knew you were a snake in the grass the first time I met you.
I knew I never stood a chance but I still adored you.
I don’t question the past, I just run into the wind,
but I just have to ask are you happier for it?
I knew you only had my back to stick a knife in it.
And every time that we had a pact you’d go and run your mouth about it.
Why can’t you just be where it is you said you’d be?
I always have to wait and see what trouble you bring me.
I left before, but it won’t be long ’till I come back again.
You and me are one in the same though it don’t add up yet.
Riding separate cars on passing trains we cross for an instant,
but I just can’t sustain unless I put my lips on it.
I just have to taste what it’s like to have it.
I left before, but it won’t be long ‘till I come back again.

I’m not trying to take from you what you’re not trying to give away.
But it’s hard being in your company without wishing and wanting to stay.
How you love to leave me here this way, hanging on every word you say.
How it pains me to feel this way,
my stomach twists in knots but it’s all the same.
I keep coming back again
‘cause it’s all worth it just to hear you say my name.
Call it out again and again, but just don’t tell me that I’m your friend.
I can’t take it love, if we can’t make it love.
‘Cause there’s no start or end if you tell me that we’re just friends.
My blood is thin, my breath is quick,
but I’m content to watch you swim as I sink.
‘Round here the whiskey flows like wine,
leaving a stain on my heart every time.
Every inch of you locked up tight in my mind.
It’s a cruel game and you ain’t no friend of mine.
I can’t take it love, if we can’t make it love.
‘Cause there’s no start or end if you tell me that we’re just friends.

This Too Shall Pass

I can’t be to blame for your madness it’s sad but neither can you.
I know that you’ll go soon but I’ll never forget you, it’s hard now...
but this too shall pass.
You did what you had to do, I’d never judge you.
I couldn’t because I love you.
And we did what we thought was right, we didn’t talk,
we’d just let it slide 'cause we didn’t want to hurt you.
But I take it back, what I just said,
because it was really you hurting us instead, but in spite of all of it,
I still wanted to save you...
save me too.
And when it took over you and your color changed from pink to blue,
I just missed you.
I’m grown now and I finally see that some demons just can't be beat,
and life isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be.
