lyrics

Drink until I fall asleep
Because your soul I could not keep
and I'm sorry that I cut so deep
Feeling this truth slowly bleed

Out of me and onto you
More truth than you even knew
But you saw the color blue
and this smile you saw through

So what if this is how it ends?
What if my heart never truly mends?
My forced composure starts the blend
With all the things I never said

Cause you deserved more than a case
Of broken dreams and poker face
I guess I wanted you to chase
But my love turned into needy rage

You are the fire in my veins
The warmth upon my pillow case
I'd rather die inside this place
Than have to see you walk away

So what if this is how it ends?
What if my heart never truly mends?
My forced composure starts the blend
With all the things I never said

(spoken) So I drink until I fall asleep
Because your soul I could not keep
and I'm sorry that I cut so deep
Feeling this truth slowly bleed

And its out of me and onto you
More truth than you even knew
But you saw the color blue
and this smile you saw through

So what if this is how it ends?
What if my heart never truly mends?
My forced composure starts the blend
With all the things I never said

There's a monster
it's in my bones
it's telling me that I'm alone
It's shaking me until I burn
So to the fire's I return

So what if this is how it ends?
What if my heart never truly mends?
My forced composure starts the blend
With all the things I never said
I never said
