lyrics

if you ask me how i am i'll probably lie
just because i've never been the kind of guy
to share the weight of his problems
'cause that don't change that i still got 'em
if you're moving then why get involved?
be realistic//don't insult my intelligence
i tried the distance thing with someone i knew better
i tried to keep her faithful but in the end i let her

i have never felt this bad
i'm not overstating that
all the people i've done wrong
left for dead inside a song
i could recklessly console
all the ones that i still know
but then where would i go?

if you ask me out i probably won't go
even though you're beautiful//don't act like you don't know
'cause you don't need to be look-aftering
while the rest of your life should be happening
so give me bourbon in a cup
give me somewhere to throw up
give me pictures in the sky
give me someone i can fight
'cause you should be somewhere disastering
with someone else who doesn't understand what that can mean
