The Kill

One of these days I'm gonna wake up smiling One of these days I'm gonna cry When all of the years start to blend in together I watch 'em disappear in your eyes Remember the days we used to drive upstate Singing indie rock songs in the car You wore your fresh leather And blamed it on the weather For being the reason you were So difficult, but so invincible Irresistible, but I loved you still You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses In your white t-shirt, but I couldn't fill The shoes you laid down for me From the girls that came before I was all the way in You were halfway out the door Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill And you were going in for The kill And you were going in for The kill One of these days I'm gonna wake up fresh and Wipe all the past from my eyes Curl up next to you in tall grass, sunshine And wrap my body's shape 'round your side Remember the days we used to ideate About what we would do all our lives I'd be a singer and an old bourbon drinker Oh and we'd have a band on the side Oh, I know I was So difficult, but so invincible Irresistible, but you loved me still I kept your secrets and stole your weaknesses In your white t-shirt, but you couldn't fill The shoes I laid down for you From the guys that came before You were all the way in I was halfway out the door Oh you were an animal making your way up the hill And I was going in for the kill Oh, all of our lives Was it worth it? Ooh or were we just wasting time? Cause we were hurting But I know that you know That I know you best and I know that we both Can forget all the rest If we just can Admit that We both were so difficult, but so invincible Irresistible, but I loved you still You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses In your white t-shirt, but I couldn't fill The shoes you laid down for me from the ones that came before I was all the way in, you were halfway out the door Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill And you were going in for the kill Oh I was going in for The kill Oh we were going in for The kill
