Lyrics
Batter after batter
I couldn't play ball
I dreamt of anybody else's world
I wasn't ready at all
Scared to start and my face betrays me
Gotta get out before the heart starts shaking
That was me blue
That was me before you
That was me before you
You hate being a passenger
The fate of someone else's wheel
They say they'll have you home for dinner, baby, baby, baby
In a home that you'll share
My bed was a place for the lonely
Built it that way, came to think it was holy
That was me blue
Cross-fade in the dark, have a smoke, yeah
Take another drink or a walk with the news playin'
That was me too
That was me before you
That was me before you
That was me before you
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Cross-fade in the night, have a smoke, yeah
Take another drink or a walk with the news playin' (hm)
My bed was a place for the lonely (uh)
Built it that way, came to think it was holy (da, da, da-da, da, da, da-da)
Scared to start and my face betrays me
Gotta get out before the heart starts shaking
That was me before you
Me before you
Oh, and I'm tired and at war
Tired and at war
