lyrics

I come once a week To say that I went To say that I tried I tug at a heart string Like my father taught me I openly lie I've seen her before Said "I'll get her home" Before I arrived Because a confidence practiced Can get what you lacked at the start of the night Give it a try I see it in steps I brush back my hair He turns to his left He sings as he asks me if I come here often And I smile yes We collect our miscues And all stripped of meaning We connect and collide A dream kept in secret A lie that's worth keeping A plea just to try We're both sure of where we belong That we're both better off alone If only we tried Then we just might Sharpen our edges And carve out a life Well we're getting old A little too quick We burn the rope at both ends And death seems so tasteless A life cut and pasted when remembered again There's always tonight though There's always tonight to go and get it right Let's try 'Cause we don't know if we have a home If we're both better off alone Would we both know if we were wrong? We're trying God, try it Let's try Or should we just drink? I'm so fucking over this I'm done, been done Should we just drink?
