Give Me Back My Sweater

(albüm: Noise, Rarities, Demos, Sincerely Yours, And The Unfinished - 2013)

I hope my mixtape kept you company
Driving home with all of your things
Was it easy sifting through the vinyl?
Picking out which Bright Eyes album's yours

My past mistakes have taught me nothing
Never took my heart out from my sleeve
But now you've come and stole my sweater
Exposed cuts for the whole world to see

I won't be the one to save you
I won't be the medicine on your shelf
I'm desperately hoping just to hate you
Half as much as I hate myself

Forty ounces warm inside me
Help to keep the flood behind it's gate
There to save me from my own depression
The town could drown God forbid it breaks

I'll say I'm fine if you'd believe me
Oh nevermind, the feeling's fleeting
I'll say I'm fine if you'd believe me
Oh nevermind, the feeling's fleeting
I'll say I'm fine if you'd believe me
Oh nevermind, the feeling's fleeting
I'll say I'm fine if you'd believe me
Oh nevermind, the feeling's fleeting

I won't be the one to save you
I won't be the medicine on your shelf
I'm desperately hoping just to hate you
Half as much as I hate myself
