All you left was broken bottles I couldn't have checked for you in the bottom of them even if had I wanted Two years too many, never read the label when you'd get me I was a broken record turning on the needles of your memories Lost eyes, lost hopes, I don't care anymore You took the last of me I don't care anymore Add a list of small smiles and beating hearts who wrecked my ribs I wish I could tell you I didn't rehearse these lines, I wish I could say they were adlib But time comes to show, Your presence left a shadow and a cut that still burns from salt despite how shallow A knock in the teeth, Figment of my imagination, no I can still breathe I'm just tipsy from thoughts of you and me As I swallow you down, you taste so pretty But you burn all the same, how could I believe so foolishly Dumb love songs on repeat, They all say the same thing, I know I've tried to write a song to fit the way we both hit our low Tally marked points we kept track of, First love is not a game, don't you write it on a tree with our names above I set the wood on fire in hopes I'd smoke you away, But I just coughed up embers and you're still miles away.
"I didn't expect your face at the bottom of a bottle of peppermint ***** to begin with."
