now the secret's out- not everything
not the hours in bed, on couches, in parks
just feeling right
everyone wants one last time
and he kisses my cheek
i drink from the bottle to ignore the rush he gives
like the more subdued glow that i feel from you
'he'll never hurt you,' he says and i just nod
'he's not like you.'
i lean back, guitar in hand
balancing pick and whiskey in the other
everyone will break me in the end anyway
so i can sing of the pain next to him
he holds on one moment longer
but i can let go, i can leave without his love
whispering 'anytime,' but the words she said inside my head
i'll go home, sleeping single
maybe i'll dream of him, more likely of you
