Lyrics (Start at 0:00):
Don’t call it a fallout
Hands bared step outta the dugout
I can deal with what comes after that
I saw you tearing up the very last photograph
No second chances and honestly
The juice wasn’t worth the squeeze
You really thought that I’m the safe option?
I guess I just saw it differently
Did you get what you wanted?
You said that I’m just paranoid
I got caught in the teeth of the thoughts that keep me awake
And you’re still not being honest
And you swear that I’m just paranoid
And I didn’t need it I was gonna bleed anyway
You weren’t sure of your choices
So you thought you should give me a ring
The good was good but the bad was better
And that pretty much sums up everything
I didn’t know what you wanted or if it was something I could even give
And if I could I don’t know if I would give it
You sound fine and you’ve seen how I live
Did you get what you wanted?
And you swear that I’m just paranoid
I got caught in the teeth of the thoughts that keep me awake
And you’re still not being honest
And you swear that I’m just paranoid
And I didn’t need it, I was gonna bleed anyway
So caught up in the afterglow
Running around like I didn’t know
I was just a thing you could mess with
I was just a notch on your checklist
It didn’t bother me all that much
You were something I was willing to part with
We were both pretty heartless
Didn’t even love you that much to start with
Leave or stay it’s all the same
Cause I was gonna bleed anyway
Don’t call it a fallout
Hands bared step outta the dugout
I can deal with what comes after that
If I’m your backup I guess you shoulda planned for that
