Strangers (Acoustic)

(album: Bad Weather - 2015)

You've got a razor tongue
And your words cut me open
Bloody and broken
Let's let this soak in
I thought I'd never want to see you again
But I saw you again last night
And now I'm gonna do what I said I'd never do
I'm throwing all my pride away and crawling back to you
If breaking all my rules is something that I have to do

Then I hope you break yours too
Do you remember saying
Our goodbyes in your room?
We'll pack our things and leave
Come back next year to see
The strangers that we let ourselves become

One last goodbye on the shoulder you cried on
Let you dry your eyes on my blue shirt that you love
And I know that you'll sleep fine without me by your side
Without me by your side

I took the long way to your house so I could see if your light's on in your bedroom
And now I know you'll be the one who I compare everyone else to

My heart is black and blue, we're getting older too
And keeping everything inside is something that I do
We used to make this happen
We used to make this... happen

Think back on everything we said
Everything we abandoned
The swings behind your house
Might as well be broken now
We were lying to ourselves

One last goodbye on the shoulder you cried on
Let you dry your eyes on my blue shirt that you love
And I know that you'll sleep fine without me by your side
Without me by your side
Without me by your side
Without me by your side

There's just some things about me
That you will never understand
Things will never go back to the way that they used to be
Things will never go back to the way that they used to be
