Lyrics
You say we're gonna make it You say you know I’m crazy And all I’ve ever made you Is the girl with her finger Trying to hold back a landslide Caught me staring out the window Searching the coast for answers Avoiding the talk we know she wants to have Every questions like a dull knife The drive feels like a life time I find myself just wanting it all to end Left gasping and choking She pulled the old scares Staring at the truth with no way to escape Cuz I’m a liar and she knows it I’m not proud But I own it not enough apologies for all my mistakes And then the levee breaks Then the levee breaks I swear that nothing happened inside i know it didn't Then why, why do I feel so bad Why is it when I know i have a good thing something Inside says I don't deserve it I cut n run I pull the trigger I burn it down Burn it to the ground What was I supposed to say that was wrong How do I stop the tears Maybe we should just move on Instead we sweep it under the carpet n drink a few More beers a few more beers Left gasping and choking She pulled the old scares Staring at the truth with no way to escape Cuz I’m a liar and she knows it I’m not proud But I own it not enough apologies for all my mistakes And then the levee breaks Then the levee breaks All music and lyrics written by: Keaton York Polson Suitsnbootspublishing – (ASCAP) / Keaton York Polson – (ASCAP) © 2009 The Councilmen.
