Work Out

Well, there's two sides to my taillights
And they both don't work right
There's a motel on the highway
And a hundred miles outside of Nashville
And I still don't know when I can come home
But I promised I would try so
I might be a coward

Well, the first cut was the deepest
But it healed up whole
And the next one was a soft touch
But I bled out below
We were a team 'til you're toxic
I mean you talk shit, often
But once upon a time
We were in love

Well, there's two sides to a fair fight
And you're the third man out
I was hopeful with a slow hand
And I got gunned down
Well, you asked me if I could grow up
But I don't know why for
I don't know much
I'm a palm frond dying on the front porch

Well, the first cut was the deepest
But it healed up whole
And the last one was a clean hit
But I bled out below
We were a team 'til you're toxic
I mean you talk shit, often
But once upon a time
We were in love

Know there's two lanes on a highway
And I passed you by
Thought about calling, but I deleted your number
And we both know why

Truth is when I met you
Well, you know you made me cry
And I knew you for a second
You were gone in flashing lights
But since I had one lost one
Oh, at least I said goodbye
What's done is done is not enough to describe

When I met you, I regret you
If it makes for the longest ride
If I let you stay in my head, then it's overnight
You like when I sing our songs about us

Well, you like when I sing our songs about us in the rain
I exorcise us baby, I'm working out the pain
Well, I knew you had a heart, but God I knew just how you were
If I'd have known you, I'd have cloned you
Just to see you hurt

Well, there's two sides to a timeline and they've all got the same arc
When I'm next to you, I can wave to you
Because we're miles apart
Know you wrote me 'bout your changed things
But baby, you know me
I don't read a damn thing
Don't ever read a damn thing

Well, the first cut was the deepest
But it healed up whole
And the last one was a clean hit
But I bled out below
We were a team 'til you're toxic
I mean you talk shit, often
But once upon a time
We were in love

Well, there's two lanes on a highway
And I passed you by
Thought about calling, but I deleted your number
And we both know why
