For Someone Else's Sake

Thank you for being quick

Cause if I had one more tequila you'd be gone and I'd be sick

Shouldn't I just go to sleep

But there's a place in Ocean Beach where we could get our drinks for cheap

The neon stings like a cut

But it's quiet cause the jukebox only sings when I get up

When you walked in I felt the cold

If your lips were made for moving then my hand was meant to hold

Now we're skipping down the road by sunshine

Ain't it funny how it always smells like

A bunch of weed that I never buy

I guess I never wanna be that high

Drunk standing in the parking lot

So I can see if I can drive or not

Guess we got a little time to kill

I really shouldn't but I guess I will

You are a great parade

Shouting curses at the very worst you're sharp and unashamed

I am a faulty flame

That you used to light a fire neither him or I could tame

And we've spent the last few years

Turning nothing into magic learning how to disappear

But I've made a decent home

So if your bed was made for fucking then I'd rather sleep alone

If someone hurts every time they're with you

You get to thinking maybe you're the issue

I'm giving up for someone else's sake

Cause I would never wanna be that way

Make your peace about her being gone

Take your time and sing a bad love song

And in the morning when I'm feeling blue

I take my medicine and dream of

You don't care

If I'm not there

And our hearts bleed on

This ain't your song

You don't care

If I'm not there

And our hearts bleed on

This ain't your song

(There was someone there was something there was laughter

It wasn't you it wasn't me that you were after

Funny how you're gone funny how you changed funny we were there

Honey it was you honey it was me funny I don't care)
