🎹 Lyrics That Hit The Spot

If it's still the past
That makes you doubt
Darlin', that was then
And this is now
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
And I'll never make you sad again
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
Let's let bygones
Be forgotten
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
You can go and be
What you want to be
And it'll be alright
If we disagree
I'm the one who cares
And I hope you'll see
That I'm the one who loves you
Reconsider me
 
It's something in the sun or the air
It's making me wanna run away from here
I know that you want me to stay with you, but no

So I'll keep on making excuses about the sun, the earth, the rays
Our days are numbered, wired and I'm tired of it
I know you're trying
But you'll never unravel me


Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel

It's something about the season that we're in
That's making me think that we're not supposed to do this
I know that you're trying to understand, but you can't
'Cause I keep on making excuses 'bout the fall, the rise
And how my mind is ruptured, wired and I'm tired of it

I know you're trying
But you'll never unravel me
 
No, don't listen to a word they say
I'm in your head like every day
And you deny yourself and then you scream my name
And I can't take it
No, I can't take it

Come chase the night with me
They say I'm bad, you say it back
But you know you don’t believe that
Eat the fruit that feeds your spirit
On your knees, now baby eat it, eat it
 
And I know I'm not a good man but you gotta understand what I've been through
I spend my dark days in hell and if you couldn't tell, I found a light in you
And I'll never be the same and it's all you to blame, who gave that right to you?
But if push comes to shove, I'm in desperate need of love, I'll fuckin fight for you

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back
Because the good heart in me knows I need you back
 
I wanna call you
I wanna ball you
All night long
In winds of passion
My whip is lashing
I wanna get you and then
 
“They say time takes care of itself
It gets by without no help at all
Like a jar of sand that sits on the shelf
It's only time and time after all.”
 
The time's always right to fix what's wrong

Time is always right in past tense
Avoiding is my newest obsession
Started with the right intentions
But left 'em on the shelf
So tell me how to live in tension
'Cause every “could've been” kills when
Living here has been hell
And I can't hold it myself

The whisper in my heart, it could never speak up
The message in my chest gathered too much dust
I can't afford the truth even if it's unjust
Keep it top shelf, keep it all locked up

So yippee-ki-yay, it's not my blood
But every single day it calls my bluff
It's not okay then it ain't quite done
Then it ain't quite done…


Oh, my God, it ain't quite
Why hold on, it ain't quite
Love, hold on it ain't quite done
Oh, my God, it ain't quite
Why hold on, it ain't quite
Love, hold on it ain't quite done
 
It ain't the liquor
It ain't the beer that keeps me down
It ain't the sad songs or heartache
It ain't even this town
 
Now the music is playing in a whiskey saloon
It comes through my window
Like a favorite tune
I can walk down the stairway
I can walk down the street
And lay down my money
But it's not what I need
Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night, angel of the night
There's a weight on my shoulder
That won't let me be
Like something left over between you and me
I know there's a danger whenever we touch
It's always the last time
But it's never enough
 
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before times took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
When friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever
 
So you see, the only proof
Of what you are is in the way
You hear the truth
Don't be scared, live to win
Although they're always gonna tell ya it's a sin
In the end, you're on your own
And there is no one that can stop you being alone.

Stay clean
Stay clean
 
And it's the damage that we do we never know
It's the words that we don't say that scare me so
There's so many people to see
So many people you can check up on and add to your collection
But they keep you hangin' on
Until you're well hung
Your mouth is made up but your mind is undone

Take me now, baby, here as I am
Hold me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which we feed
Come on now, try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand, as the sun descends
They can't hurt you now
Can't hurt you now
Can't hurt you now
 
I've crossed the line, so I just cant lose it
I'm tied and bound and I can't abuse it
And all the things we've been fighting for
We'll break it loose, I can take some more

Don t go giving me all your reasons
I can see them, but they'll hurt me I know
Cause if the time should come that you'll be leaving
Will I have the strength to let you go?!

Please stop bringing me all your reasons
False pretenses only make me feel sad,
Cause if the time should come that you'll be leaving
Only hope that I will understand!

Let sleeping dogs lie
Let sleeping dogs lie
Let sleeping dogs lie
 
You've been stabbed in your back and the rest of your body
Won't you tell me where you're bleeding from

If you need a tourniquet or if you want to turn and quit
Know that I'll be by your side
You bled your whole soul into things you can't control
In a world you'll never satisfy

I bandage up your body and your bones and your bad days too
Take care of the blood that your love runs through
I know all the damage that some days in this dark world does
 
Hey, next girl, you don't know me
I'm just the one he says went crazy
On him, that's just what he does
But once upon a time I was
The next girl, I been where you're at
You overlook a lot when he looks like that
He'll charm your mama with that smile
Hide the red flags for a little while

I bet you probably met him at a bar
Let him walk you to your car
I bet he said he never falls this hard
Yeah, I remember that part
He knows how to say all the right things
Knows how to get you outta that dress
Knows how to make you think you're the best thing
But I know what happens next, girl
 
I went stumbling through the fog
Trying to find a reason for the things I told her
She woke up sunny side down
And I was still thinking, I was too proud to flip her over
Between the champagne, hand jobs
And the kissing ass by everyone involved
Cocaine rich comes quick
And that's why the small dicks have it all
 
Jesus Christ, girl
I laid up for hours in a daze
Retracing the expanse of your American back
With Adderall and weed in my veins
You came, I think
 
Maybe we hurt who we love the most
Maybe it's all we can stand
Maybe we walk through the world as ghosts
Break my own heart before you can
 
Call my name, here I come.
90 to nothing, watch me run.
You call.
I am ashamed to say.
Ugly girls know their fate.
Anybody can get laid.
You want a room with a fire escape.
I wanna tell you how much I hate this.
Don't leave that stuff all over me.
It pains me.
