lyrics

I was lying on your bed
You were slipping on your shoes
And I swore to god that this would be the end
Well my father ain’t no preacher
I wasn’t raised up in a church
But if there’s a hell that’s where I’m headed

I should’ve known better than that
I shouldn’t have knocked upon your door
Now here I lie bleeding on these cheap bed sheets
Wishing I could take it back

I was crawling on my knees
Begging you to leave her side
But you didn’t even glance in my direction
They say you hurt the ones you love
But doesn’t murder seem too much?
Cause now I’m dragging my own body to the grave

I should’ve known better than that
I shouldn’t have wasted all that time
Now here I lie bleeding on these cheap bed sheets
Wishing I could take it back

I was lying on your bed
You were slipping off your shoes
I knew just what I was getting myself into

Better Man or Ghost

Such honesty in his music. Reminds me a lot of Noah Gundersen. Writes the kind of music I aspire to write one day. Buy it! Brittany Myers
