Someone Else

Light your cigarette and tell me How I make the world okay Then let's overdose on whiskey And just fuck the pain away

For a moment lying next to you Passed out in that hotel I thought I could fix your broken pieces

I would say your name But I must have forgot it Be with you everyday If I didn't have to be honest

I liked you better with the lights off Because I couldn't see the end

You've got a piece of me You can keep it forever Can't give you everything 'Cause I barely hold it together

I'm waiting for you to change my nature Until you do, I'm not giving up anymore of my paper
