lyrics

i remember a time when i thought i was happy
it was with you by my side
but i hardly left the house
i couldn't bring myself to write
hell, i barely even tried
we got a dog and hid away
insid that big old southern state
i tried to welcome on old age
and those books you read
each one just went right to your head
you drifted further with each page

and it all turns out it was headed south
it was one big fucking lie
and it took too long for me to figure out
that you weren't the love of my life
and i can't hate you, but i'll try

so i ran, that's what you get from a broken man
but state lines don't give a damn
they'll wash you clean
put a little life back in your dreams
but it's still her face that i see
now i talk slow
repeating every trick i know
i wake up empty from routine
and these books i read
well, they can't keep me company
or talk me down when things get bleak

and it all turns out it was headed south
it was one big fucking lie
and it took too long for me to figure out
that you weren't the love of my life
and i can't hate you, but i'll try
