Lyrics:
VERSE
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
POST VERSE
This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
PRE CHORUS
It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
CHORUS
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "are we havin' fun yet?"
VERSE
It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause livin' with me must have *** near killed you
POST VERSE
This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
PRE CHORUS
It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
CHORUS
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "are we havin' fun yet?"
BRIDGE
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
POST VERSE
This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
PRE CHORUS
It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
his time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking

I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
