Good Intentions

(Album: I'm Hard To Love, But So Are You, Vol. 2 - 2019)

I've done some things that make me hate myself
I brush it off, but maybe I don't look so well
These new confessions don't make me proud
They're never pretty, but soon you'll find that out

And it's part of the problem you couldn't solve
You're taking it personal, but I mean no harm
I try to be stable, but fall apart, fall apart

Chasing the silver lining
Finding the up when I am
Down like this
Won't you let me stay
Down like this
Nothing but good intentions
Wasting away when I stay
Low like this
Won't you let me stay
Low like this

I've tortured hearts in ways I've never felt
I push away the things they say will help
I blame it all on my destructive self
Cause there's a pattern in the hand I'm dealt

And it's part of the problem you couldn't solve
Don't want you to sink with me, you better run
And I don't appreciate what I've become, I've become

Chasing the silver lining
Finding the up when I am
Down like this
Won't you let me stay
Down like this
Nothing but good intentions
Wasting away when I stay
Low like this
Won't you let me stay
Low like this

I'm supposed to say, "Forgive me"
You're supposed to say, "If only..."

I've done some things that make me hate myself
I've done some things that make me hate myself

Chasing the silver lining
Finding the up when I am
Down like this
Won't you let me stay
Down like this
Nothing but good intentions
Wasting away when I stay
Low like this
Won't you let me stay
Low like this
