lyrics

For all the half-ass lovers I'm still here on my own. Put your hands and bottles up for another month as the crow flies.. Though, I've found that I fall with style. But I'll never let 'em eat me up. Because they'll never really know the truth about the fucked up things I do when no one that I love is watching me. So, if I don't get good at sleeping soon.. Yeah, if I never feel at home again, I'll just follow my heart everywhere. But honestly, I'm restless. So, I'll just keep dicking around for answers like I do. I'm great at comin' up empty handed like there ain't nothin' to lose. 'Cause I've got friends in places low as fuck and we've all been singin' the blues. 'Cause just like these other bastards know, when you're alone, You Are Alone.. And that's why I run. So when you tell me again, that I'm not worth believing in.. Thanks to Johnny Walker Red, I'll be too tired to laugh this one off. And this lonely girl says that I owe her somethin' now.. Yeah, for all those pills but I didn't like the way she choked me. Didn't like it when she touched me at all. 'Cause we're nothing more than just strangers. And I'm a broke-ass sinner with a sick love for.. breaking shit? But God Knows I Won't try fixin' almost anything with these swollen, shaky hands. And I swear I won't write songs about home like they do, at all. Always with a straight face, I guess it's really not a joke. And I'd apologize but you know how we get in the summer. Still, I'm diggin' myself in far too deep with all these tasteless things I say.. To the people that I care about and I can't help letting down. But that's why.. That's what I'm tryin' to change. Oh baby, I'm always wakin' up at the bottom of all of these bottles where I've been lyin' with all of my stupid friends. But all these lies that I say are just sorry attempts to make you stay. Though, I know that you won't. So, if I never stop talking trash, you should get out while you still can.. Instead of getting dragged over all my good intentions and the bitterness that I can't shake. 'Cause I've been told that my friends wouldn't like me if they knew what I really was, and that's probably true but they just wouldn't understand. 'Cause I remember wantin' nothin' but a good time and that just left me tryin' to keep my shit together. So, I won't apologize for wakin' up and drinkin' while laughing, looking through all these exit wounds. So, if you want to have fun, you better load up your guns. Yeah, if you think that I'm done.. I'm sorry but you better load up your guns.
