Firewater

[Verse 1]

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

Because it was such a beautiful mess we had got into

I'm going to overcome this, paper hearts can't win this time

And all along I should have known this 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

[Chorus 1]

I was never good at goodbye

[Chorus 2]

Can I swallow this bottle whole?

So this brain in my head can forget your face

[Verse 2]

When we were starting out, you believed in me without a doubt

You were the finest thing to happen 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

[Chorus 1]

And I was never good at goodbye

[Chorus 2]

Can I swallow this bottle whole?

So this brain in my head can forget your face

Can I swallow this bottle whole?

Because I'd rather be dead than make more mistakes

[Verse 3]

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)

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 4]

I know you wanted me to give up my life to be

(Can I swallow this bottle whole?)

Everything I am when you're the only thing that I can see

(Can I swallow this bottle whole?)

I'm sorry but you're not the, not the only one for me

(So this brain in my head can forget your face)

[Outro]

You left me here beside myself

Left me with all the reasons why I was wrong for you
