Lyrics
I’m anticipating every word you say
On the long drive home
And I just can’t steer straight
Your words the bullet
Your mouth the gun
Just another look at the damage that you’ve done
And now it’s hard to be
And now it’s hard to be (Hate to be the one to tell you every bad dreams gonna come true)
And now it’s hard to be
And now it’s hard to be (I’m dedicating every single dead end to you)
I’m anticipating every breath you take
The taste of burning foil from when you came and went
Ink and blood just aren’t enough to keep your taste From my tongue or your name from my lungs
And now it’s hard to be
And now it’s hard to be (Hate to be the one to tell you every bad dreams gonna come true)
And now it’s hard to be
And now it’s hard to be (I’m dedicating every single dead end to you)
And I hide it underneath
Every bruised and beaten piece
That I refuse to be seen
There is no space between
I feel you next to me
(Your warmth blistering
And now it’s hard to breathe)
