Thoughtful Distress
[Verse 1]
Do you still love her when you feel bad?
An angry loser when you're low
Every moment that she takes you
Is just a moment she controls

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say
I love you more than yesterday
You tried to make it go away
That only made me wanna chase

[Chorus]
Dyin' to be the one you keep
There's no way that I can leave
Asking, "May I be excused?"
Words you know I never use
Back when I was on the run
It was never that much fun
What's that hiding up your sleeve?
Laughing at me nervously

[Verse 2]
Tell mе one more thing
That future is an offеring
I put it on a china plate
But maybe you don't like the taste
[Pre-Chorus]
I could recover after all that
At least, I think that I could cope
I'd be the person that you don't ask
If he's alright, 'cause you'd just know

[Chorus]
Dyin' to be the one you keep
There's no way that I can leave
Asking, "May I be excused?"
Words you know I never use
Back then I was on the run
Waking up and still half drunk
Wonderin' what you saw in me
Something that I still don't see

[Outro]
Back then I was on the run
Waking up and still half drunk
Wonderin' what you saw in me
Something that I still don't see
Something that I still don't see
