His Sober Heart

〜VERSE 1〜

You called me on the phone the other night

I knew you were drunk before you even said it

Your sharp words cut me down like a knife

But I kept silent to let you vent it


You tried to use anger to blanket the pain

A drunk mind speaks a sober heart they say

Flames blazed on your every word

But I took the heat cause it was well-deserved


〜PRE-CHORUS〜

It's been weighing me down

It's all over now

I've lost one of the good ones


And I'm full of shame

Yeah I'll take the blame

Can't change what's already been done


〜CHORUS〜

It's been keeping me up at night

The fact that I still haven't made things right

So don't think it hasn't been hard on me too

I'm hating myself for doing this to you

I won't forgive myself till you do


And I know you'll say you'll eventually be fine

All wounds heal in the passing of time

But while I'm waiting I'm afraid to know

That you'll decide to let this friendship go


〜VERSE 2〜

I miss the way we used to be

But I know we're only here because of me

But I'll always love the way you made me laugh

Oh I'd do anything to bring those days back


And I never told you this so I'll say this now

Whenever I was low or feeling down

A call from you was all it would take

To put back a smile on my face


〜PRE-CHORUS〜

It's been weighing me down

can't turn this around

I've lost one of the good ones


And I'm full of shame

Yeah I'll take the blame

I'll take whatever comes


〜CHORUS〜

I've been staying up every night

Cursing myself for being so blind

I'm shivering from my own cold heart

I know that even if I glue back the shards

You won't be the same as at the start


And I know you'll say you'll eventually be fine

All wounds heal in the passing of time

But while I'm waiting, I'm afraid you'll say

that I hurt you too much then walk away


〜BRIDGE〜

Please don't leave

we'll work this out

just wait and see


Please don't go

you mean so much to me

don't you know


I know it's a lot to ask

for you to let me back in

I know what it feels like

to get left broken

But I'm here right now

I promise never to leave again


〜CHORUS〜

It's been keeping me up at night

The fact that I still haven't made things right

So don't think it hasn't been hard on me too

I'm hating myself for doing this to you

I won't forgive myself till you do


And I know you'll say you'll eventually be fine

All wounds heal in the passing of time

But while I'm waiting I'm afraid to know

That you'll decide to let this friendship go
