this and that

if you gave me everything
the sheets the rug the cars
you saved nothing for yourself
or a rainy day.

i wouldn't be so kind as to say goodbye
if the words don't do it themselves maybe i won't mind
it's as if you're afraid to reveal the same mistakes...
lets get drunk and make mistakes
you said lets get drunk
we'll make mistakes.

repeating words like 'this'
'this' feels like 'that'.
maybe one day i'll have both
but it's so hard to decide
when the flesh extends itself so easily to one
but has such trouble touching another

it's human behavior at it's finest
to feel and touch seems to solidify it's place in your mind
it's as if we're all afraid to make the same mistakes
lets get drunk and make mistakes...
lets get drunk
and make mistakes.

you tried to hand me everything
the sun the moon and the stars
sounds cliche, but i'd take none of it
just to spend one day with you.
I tried to be a better me
In the end I looked like the rest of them.
