Parting Gift

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Always turning out for the worst You were always my most consistent curse And I hope this gets you kind of heated Or stings a little, if you even read it Bringing everyone down You left this house feeling empty But it's better than feeling like it's burning to the ground [Chorus] I can't live with you around anymore You're blocking out the sound outside my door And I found more [Verse 2] I can't remember all the times that I Almost had bruised eyes for being on your side And, now, I hope that someone gets to ya And if I'm there I'll pretend I never knew ya See you around You were alright back when we were young But you don't compare to anything that I've found [Chorus] I can't live with you around anymore You're blocking out the sound outside my door And I found more [Instrumental] [Bridge] I wrote you down a letter before I went to sleep It had all the secrets I could no longer keep I held them in for so long I was going to break But, maybe, now I can rest, and you will lay awake I wrote you down a letter before I went to sleep It had all the secrets I could no longer keep I held them in for so long I was going to break But, maybe, now I can rest, and you will lay awake I wrote you down a letter before I went to sleep It had all the secrets I could no longer keep I held them in for so long I was going to break But, maybe, now I can rest, and you will lay awake [Outro] I wrote you down a letter before I went to sleep It had all the secrets I could no longer keep I held them in for so long I was going to break But, maybe, now I can rest, and you will lay awake
