I wanna be drunk when I wake up

On the right side of the wrong bed

And never an excuse I made up

And to tell you the truth I hate

What didn’t kill me

It never made me stronger all

Love will scar your makeup, lip sticks to me

So now I maybe lean back there

I’m sat here wishing I was sober

I know I’ll never hold you like I used

 

But a house gets cold when you cut the heating

Without you to hold I’ll be freezing

Can’t rely on my heart to beat in

‘Cause you take parts of it every evening

Take words out of my mouth just from breathing

Replace with phrases like when you’re leaving me

 

Should I? Should I?

Maybe I’ll get drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

To feel a little love

 

I wanna hold your heart in both hands

Not watch it fizzle at the bottom of a Coke can

And I got no plans for the weekend

So should we speak then

Keep it between friends

Though I know you’ll never love me like you used to

 

There may be other people like us

Who see the flicker of the clipper when they light up

Flames just create us but burns don’t heal like before

And you don’t hold me anymore

 

On cold days cold plays out like the band’s name

I know I can’t heal things with a handshake

You know I can’t change as I began saying

You cut me wide open like landscape

Open bottles of beer but never champagne

To applaud you with the sound that my hands make

 

Should I? Should I?

Maybe I’ll get drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

To feel a little love

 

All by myself

I’m here again

All by myself

You know I’ll never change

All by myself

All by myself

I’m just drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

I’ll be drunk again

To feel a little love
