Talking every minute
got me thinking something different,
like i wanna move things slow
but you're in the fast lane already shifting'.
And we haven't spoke in months
it's like we've both gone missing',
yeah i should of got the clue once your feelings started drifting'.
And i know there is an ocean full of a lot of different women
but you're the apple to my eye
that went rotten for the picking'.
yeah i know change is scary but there is no way we can fix it
said she fell in love with Kyle
she could give a f*** about Nixon
please just listen like.

Hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
just listen,
hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
Just listen.

Late nights and bad fights
long talks that went wrong,
i tried to make it work for us
but i ended up all alone.
Hella stoned, at my home
reminiscing on all my pain,
so i can face my problems
and put them in all my f***ing songs.
i'm so gone,
in my zone,
the dry wall takes all my punches thrown
because i'm getting angrier
every time i see my mirror clone.
it's getting old
months,
weeks,
f*** it, everyday.
Every time i face my demons i always end up walking away.
I wrote this letter twice
and i still cant get it right,
it's clouding up my mind
so you can keep it for the night.
Hold it tight, in your memory
i hope you will remember me,
cause if you try and kill our past
i hope i surely rest in pieces, of my heart always falls upon that f***ing grass
that i pack.
No more worries
once i hurry up and pass,
trying not to come in last on a track of broken glass,
how am i supposed to finish
when i fall face flat.

Hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
just listen,
hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
Just listen.

i couldn't count the broken promises up with one hand,
but i can show you how happy you would be if i was still your man.
And i know that's not your plan
you keep changing like the wind,
but it felt like we had things figured out
do you remember way back when?
I used to call you every day
i could get you anything,
you left all the memories
and gave me back everything.
Like peace see ya later
now we're feeling more like strangers,
yeah my heart's getting colder
and its flirting with the dangers of the abyss,
is where i'm falling
yeah i hear the devil calling
in your voice,
please come back to me
like i have no self choice.
Girl you know you had me once
broke my heart and f***ed things up,
i'm tired of all this fighting
stressing out, yeah i have had enough.
Time for you to leave
i suggest you go and pack your stuff,
we gotta live our lives
so you know i wish the best of luck,
to you and your future
even once your road gets rough,
because you left me at a red light
in this race you call love.

Hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
just listen,
hey baby, i know its been a late, late night.
but can i come over, so we can talk and not fight.
Just listen.
