lyrics

I hope this sets you straight
I hope tonight will set you straight
He fucking got away
He took her and he got away
She has a bad reputation, critical condition
Devil on my shoulder

A year full of bad notes and antidotes and bloody knuckles
She's still my cancer (She's still cancer)
She's a defeater
I don't need her

She's got her guy in the next room and I'm writing this story
I guess it's just too damn bad I can't wipe my heart off of my sleeve

I'll pick up the pieces and tread lightly
Oakland is calling and it's time for me
I'll never let this go
An old flame that burned things to the ground
He came around and now he's dancing with the queen

I hope this sets me straight
I hope this bottle sets me straight
He fucking got away
He took her and he got away

Now my throat is raw
I have nothing left to scream
Your mid-boredom "miss him's" don't mean a fucking thing

Let me show you what it's like to fall through as I come crashing down
See you around
Let me leave this place tonight
I hate this
I'm second guessing you
I'm leaving you

And I'll grow
