lyrics
Please don’t tear me apart
I don’t know what to do
I’m so scared of the things to come and ashamed of the things I do
I still wait for you to run
Like a bullet from a gun
but if it’s me you want, baby, I wanna see you try
So i’m just gonna let it ride
Yes I do this all the time, all the time
Please don’t start it again
I was looking for a friend
But she called me up baby, like a old fling, my head spins fast when that cell phone rings
I still wait for you to run
Like a bullet from a gun
Locked and loaded, baby, with pretty eyes
Yeah i’m just gonna let it ride
Yes I do this all the time, all the time
Come on, Just say you’re afraid
You said you’d leave me either way
It’s like an ending, without an encore, or a smile without a jawbone
I still wait for the gun to go off
And how i’d pretend to act so shocked
And how this marriage used to feel so simple, even though we felt like children
Yeah I tried to let it ride
I still do it all the time, all the time
Oh it felt so easy with the promises that we made
But it got too stale for me
Oh and the trouble with all those plans we had
A little too safe, we don’t get high, we just survive,
And let it ride
