lyrics

written july 2016

is there a way for you to say you're sorry
without blaming anybody but yourself?
the month of may has me holding on my heartbeat
like a hermit hangs onto his precious shell.

oh leah, can't you see
that i really want to love you
but your crooked memories
only make it hard?
so leah look at me -
watch me as i rise above you.
unlike you, i'm gonna be
someone from my scars.

how dare you tell me that my life is a lie?
how dare you tell me that you actually tried?
i know you tried to put the past away
but this is the shit i'm dealing with day by day.

your daughter would rather have a heartbreak from romance.
going back to you is like going for a dance with the devil himself
and i'd rather go to hell.

is there a way for you to say you're sorry
without blaming anybody but yourself?
the month of may has me holding on my heartbeat
and quite frankly dear, i'd rather go to hell.

i've got this amazing sense of pride 'cause
i've got my patience and my peace of mind. but
i've got to face it all alone at night when
i've got temptation saying i won't survive.

i've got the month of may mistaking what i'm missing more and
i've got to own the pain of vacancy to close that door.
