lyrics

I’m not trying to take from you what you’re not trying to give away.
But it’s hard being in your company without wishing and wanting to stay.
How you love to leave me here this way, hanging on every word you say.

How it pains me to feel this way,
my stomach twists in knots but it’s all the same.
I keep coming back again
‘cause it’s all worth it just to hear you say my name.
Call it out again and again, but just don’t tell me that I’m your friend.

I can’t take it love, if we can’t make it love.
‘Cause there’s no start or end if you tell me that we’re just friends.

My blood is thin, my breath is quick,
but I’m content to watch you swim as I sink.
‘Round here the whiskey flows like wine,
leaving a stain on my heart every time.
Every inch of you locked up tight in my mind.
It’s a cruel game and you ain’t no friend of mine.

I can’t take it love, if we can’t make it love.
‘Cause there’s no start or end if you tell me that we’re just friends.
