My Garden

Verse 1

Guess you and I belong together

At least you stick with me through hard times

My therapist said you're growing, growing big

Cause I'm a specialist in watering you

 

Chorus 

We live together in my garden

I'm surrounded by my flowers

But in my mind it's only you

You poison my mind

You poison my mind

You poison my mind

 

Verse 2

If I could just welcome you with open arms

I'd lay down on the grass, let it swallow me whole

I could turn you into just another tidal wave

Oh sometimes I will lose, but at least I try

 

Chorus 

We live together in my garden

I'm surrounded by my flowers

But in my mind it's only you

You poison my mind

You poison my mind

You poison my mind

Bridge

You'll always stay here with me

Memories of who I used to be

You'll always stay here with me

Memories of who I used to be

 

You'll always stay here with me

Memories of who I used to be

Driving Home Safely

Verse 1

Driving home safely

resting assured I've left you behind

When you told me

you'd been looking at rings with your mom

I wanted to pull my eyes out 

but also give me a pat on the back

It's not so easy

to unshackle yourself when you're blind and you think you're in love

But I did it

I did it with my own hands

Though it wasn't a day too soon

I made it happen

 

Chorus 1

Cause you made every day a living hell

Every day a living hell

Every day a living hell

I think you need help

 

Verse 2

Me and my girl

We saw her favorite band, you were tagging along

but we still ate breakfast without you

And in the cold night

you would cry on my lap as I patiently sat there

Can you believe it?

When we said our goodbyes I told you I love you

But it was in the friend-way

so you turned around

And you said nothing

You said nothing at all

 

Chorus 2

And you made every day a living hell

Every day a living hell

Every day a living hell

I think you need help

Love Me Again

Verse 1

Can’t let you go no matter how hard I try

I’ve lost control

Can’t seem to fall in line

If you could just give me something

It might get me through this weekend

I’ll pretend that everything’s as it was

 

Chorus 1

And I could love me again

And you could love me again

 

Verse 2

So what's happening to us?

You're so busy with everything

And I understand

Wish that we could talk about it

Silence always feels so violent

Maybe you could wipe my tears away

 

Chorus 2

Then I could love me again

And you could love me again

 

Bridge

Oh I recall you said I’m a killer

One or two years ago

Tell me again so I know you mean it

Or am I just a bug on your back?

Tell me again cause I need to feel it

It hurts to know I never cross your mind

 

Chorus 3

Can I love me again?

And can you love me again?

New Shot

Verse 1

Tried to make it up again

Told myself I won’t do that anymore

Had your back, but you dropped mine

Were we ever really friends?

 

Think it used to be some trust there

Maybe a little shed of caring

That’s why I couldn’t understand

I was always so small to you

 

Pre-Chorus

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

 

Chorus

Good thing you didn’t show up, now I've got one less thing to worry about

No way you get a new shot, I honestly can’t wait to let you down 

 

Verse 2

You got a taste of what it’s like 

To be that guy everyone’s talking about

It might’ve ate you up inside

And it’s too late to turn around

 

Sometimes I’m thinking of that night

When we drove to a parking lot

Is that where it all started

A war just to bring me down

 

Pre-Chorus

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

Isn’t it embarrassing how you’re embarrassed of me?

 

Chorus

Good thing you didn’t show up, now I've got one less thing to worry about

No way you get a new shot, I honestly can’t wait to let you down 

Good thing you didn’t show up, now I've got one less thing to worry about

No way you get a new shot, I honestly can’t wait to let you down

 

Outro

(Good thing)

I know you’re already gone

Don’t plan on coming back

(No way)

But if you come around

I honestly can’t wait to let you down
