lyrics

Hurting the one you love, it sucks
But you don’t get a gold star for being the stupid one who fucked it up
But I could settle for second place as long as you are first
What’s worse than getting last is knowing I’m the one I hurt

I only cry when I’m alone
It’s just to feel so I can recreate the moment on my own
A writer’s greatest tools are days he wishes he were dead
If I had I bullet I’d still sing myself to bed

If I go home
I’ll probly write a song about it
If I go home
You’ll miss me but I highly doubt
If I go home
My room will be a bit too crowded
I think I’ll stay the night

Think of the songs that you could get
If every lyric made you feel just that much more like fucking shit
Cos then you’d be perpetually making yourself worse
But I would cut my arm off just to write another verse…

If I go home
I’ll want to call you out of habit
If I go home
I’ll seem a bit overdramatic
If I go home
My mind and I will have a chat
I think I’ll stay the night

Instrumental

Excuses are the devils of my past
Well that’s a bit dramatic cos I know that I can’t make the feelings last
The only thing that I despise more than having no control
Is controlling the only outcome I’m prepared to leave at home

And I only wonder what I could have done with you around
There’s an atom splitting somewhere but it doesn’t make a sound
I’ll be screaming everyday until my feelings are all gone
If I Go Home Right Now, you know, I’ll Probably Write a Song

To the girl I loved completely until I just forgot
I’d say all the things I love but see, you put me on the spot
If I only get one song to tell you everything I feel
Than I blew my chance again cos this isn’t even the half of it

If I go home
I know there’s only so much left
If I go home
I can’t pretend that I’d forget
If I go home
All I know is I’ll regret
I think you should stay the night
