Lyrics

They say it’s brave to say how you feel
Easy to say when it’s not your soul that’ s spilled
Like wine I poured my heart into yours
Staining like a glass we spilled June 24th
Why do you look at me like that
Your eyes writing checks we both know they can’t cash
How strong do you need me to be
Every time I’m in your company
So maybe this time we can change it up
Maybe this time you could try
Maybe this you could be the good guy
Maybe this time you could just say no
Maybe this time I could leave
Baby this time I won’t be so damn naïve
Thinking it could be different this time

Three, six, nine months later
I’m here outside your door
You call me up ‘cause you know I just can’t ignore you
Stare deep into my eyes
And make me feel alive
You kiss me like it was our very first time

So maybe this time we could make it work
Maybe this time you could stay
Maybe this time you won’t wish it all away
Maybe this time you’ll take me by the hand and never let it go
Maybe you’ll be around for the very last show
Thinking, it could be different this time

Tell me why addiction always creeps in
Every time you know I’m ok
Six months sober but it takes
Just one gaze to make it go away
Tell me why I only see the good times
Looking at the bad through a veil
Tell me why you keep making promises
Knowing damn well you will always fail

Thinking it could be different
But it isn’t
It’s never different
‘Cause it isn’t
It won’t be different this time
