lyrics

I find the more I say that I don't love you anymore
With poison tears,
you erase my youth

I copped a wishless disconnected attitude
Like faithless friends,
we betrayed our truths

I live my days out in this dirty crosstown dive
Sweating out
the very thing that's
keeping me
alive

Just to write these words, another glass,
a melody,
a knot once tied too tight,
come untied,
burned too bright

I can't help but laugh sometimes
You're not the girl I had in mind
You're just a product of your time

I'd like to say you left me high and dry,
but I can't lie
Your crooked smile,
the very thing that made you beautiful,
has died.

Only some commit the crime,
but we all end up doing time,
and pay our fines
Checking years off of our lives

Though I'm stuck with you for now,
one day I'll wipe your dirt
from off my brow,
and move along

Sun's coming up,
and nothing left for me to do
but somehow I keep coming back to you

Sun's coming up,
and nothing left for me to do
Girl, I ain't through with you

Sun's coming up,
and nothing left for me to do
but somehow I keep coming back to you

Sun's coming up,
and nothing left for me to do
but somehow I keep coming back to you

This town will make
a bleeding martyr out of you
but somehow I keep coming back to you
