It's true

That all that you know is all that you are

You said that it's all that you want and more

Fuck off, and pour another drink

And tell me what you think

You know that I'm too drunk to talk right now

You put your cigarette out on my face

So beautiful

Please, woman, don't break your back for me

I'll put you out of your misery

Tell me that it's all okay (Tell me that it's all okay)

I've been waitin' on this all damn day (Waitin' on this all damn day)

Call me in the mornin', tell me how last night went

I'm here

But don't count on me to

Stay a little longer, if you convince me

And tell me all the things that you have against me

Every time we make up, the truth is fadin'

Everybody's blind when the view's amazin'

Damn, who are we right now?

Can we have a little conversation?

Figure it out with no intoxication

We carry on, what is our motivation?

We're never wrong, how the hell we gonna make it?

Maybe we're used to this

Tell me, what are we to do?

It's like we only play to lose

Chasin' pain with an excuse

I love that shit and so do you

But don't break your back for me

I'll put you out of your misery

Tell me that it's all okay (Tell me that it's all okay)

I've been waitin' on this all damn day (Waitin' on this all damn day)

Call me in the mornin', tell me how last night went

I'm here

But don't count on me to stay

Tell me that it's all okay (Tell me that it's all okay)

I've been waitin' on this all damn day (Waitin' on this all damn day)

Call me in the mornin', tell me how last night went

I'm here

But don't count on me to stay
