before (demo)

the tragedy of you and me

after u leave me (voice memo)

a sad little voice memo of a song i wrote a while ago 

lyrics:
i stay with you for your family 
i stay with you for the hugs 
i stay with you for the feelings 
is this fear or is this love 

you hold me in your palm like a bird with a broken wing  
tell me to jump at the count ill jump before three 
oh you make me feel like there’s no one left who wants me 
you make me feel like there’s no one left to love me 
and that’s why i stay 

im the clay and youre the sculptor 
you just choose what you want to keep
your bad days are the only ones that count 
and when im sad you go back to sleep

that's why i stay

i’ve become obsessed again
i’m finding things i thought i’d forget
foolish me, i really thought i’d move on from these things

what did i do?
how did i get here?
i closed my eyes on the highway out of pure fear
then i crashed into you

tell them about when we met
our story sounds better when it comes from your lips
tell them it was all my fault
i fled the scene when you stole my heart

the first time you touched me
how did you mean it?
i went to bed that night thinking you were thinking about it too
then i crashed into you

the first time you told me you loved me,
i was off
a hit and run
you called the cops 
i sat and i cried
then i drive down the highway
i blacked out then ended up parked at your old place
air bags were blown and front end was smashed
i called my mom to tell her i crashed
into you

what did i do?
how did i get here?
i closed my eyes on the highway out of pure fear
then i crashed into you
