I’ll Make No Excuses

 

Where were you that night you said you had some shit to do

Where did you go that night you dipped out when it was supposed to be just me and you

 

I could sit here and say all the good things,

Like how you hold me tight as if you’ll lose me tomorrow

How well you put it down, and no other man can follow

But I would be out my mind to make myself blind

 

I would’ve given the world to you

Everything I have all to you

Sold yourself short and me too

But I’ll make no excuses

You were not who you said

 

Guess you made up your mind, I’m all out of energy

Cause when you left, I just watched, End of perfect story

 

Empty memories, I don’t want to think

And when they ask, I don’t know your name

But your side of the bed, at night I envision you there

A pill I can’t swallow, but the effects are already felt

 

Excuses aren’t forgiving

Gonna hurt me in the long run

And still I know there is meaning, why you came and why you run
