Floorboards

(album: Under Your Spell - 2023)

I used to think about the future
And the things it had in store
But I don't think about it that much anymore
The medicine prescribed to you
It makes you feel so sick
You used to stay up with me late
And worry about it
You worry about my drinking
But I don't think I can quit
No, I could not take the shaking anymore

And there's this dream that I have
Where it seems like this could last
But I just freeze up and fall through the floorboards
And as you walked through the door
You leave your insides on the floor
But I don't think about you that much anymore

My heads spinning I've been up for days now
I can't seem to get out from under the gray clouds
You're not who you claim to be
If you walked out the door it would mean nothing to me
It's always the same old story
Nothing last forever I'll be gone by the morning
It's always the same old story
Nothing last forever I'll be gone by the morning

I'll be gone out your way
But if you need me I'll stay
Cause you're the song in my heart
That's on repeat
You're the movie I put on
Just to go to sleep
So tell me are you sick of me yet?
Can't handle the pain
But I like to pretend
Does it get better than this?
Like this, it's better I guess

There's this dream that I have
Where it seems like this could last
But I just freeze up and fall through the floorboards
And as you walked through the door
You leave your insides on the floor
But I don't think about you that much anymore
