im nothing thats all i am Lyrics
As you walked away from me, I counted every stride
Goddamn it, this happens every time
I looked you in the face, said, "I'm fine"
But goddamn it, would you believe I lied?
I know it doesn't look like I tried
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
[Verse]
I get drunk, I get drunk, I get too fucked up
I get stuck in my head or I get stuck up
On the things that I had or the people I trust
And the things I won't say to the people I love
[Pre-Chorus]
Like, oh my God
We've been here far too long
You almost broke my heart
You left as I started drinking
The fuck was I thinking?
[Chorus]
As you walked away from me, I counted every stride
Goddamn it, this happens every time
I looked you in the face, said, "I'm fine"
But goddamn it, would you believe I lied?
I know it doesn't look like I tried
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
And I know that you won't
So I'll leave, you'll stay home
I can't help it, I must go
[Pre-Chorus]
It's like, oh my God
We've been here far too long
You almost broke my heart
You left as I started drinking
The fuck was I thinking?
[Chorus]
As you walked away from me, I counted every stride
Like goddamn it, this happens every time
I looked you in the face, said, "I'm fine"
But goddamn it, would you believe I lied?
I know it doesn't look like I tried
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
'Cause goddamn it, this happens every time
