Violins

I am just another fool
And I have to keep telling myself
That I am just a hypocrite
And I have to keep calling you one

And I forgot to bite my tongue
As my assumption is the mother of all mistakes
So I assume the role, open my mouth
And clumsy words escape

So why you wanna be there
When you could be here?
You are slippin' away

I awake with your replacement
A bottle in my grasp, in an unfamiliar place
'Cause you put me out, the butt of your sick joke
Into this ashtray life as you come and go

'Cause I forgot to service you and we broke down
And you can't live with my mistakes
But I assume false grace, open my arms
And grasp at something true

How are you, how have you been?
Girl, I miss you
Wanna see you again
Oh, why you wanna be there
When you could be here?
Girl, I'm slipping away

I bring out the worst in you
And you try to let me know
You bring out the worst in me
Anxiety, anxiety

I'm trying to let you go
You say I'm giving you the creeps
So I assume the role, open my claws
And grasp for your heart

How are you, how have you been?
Girl, I miss you
Wanna see you again
Into you, like a mortal stake
So vindictive
Girl, I'm sliping away

Violins
Into this ashtray life
Violins
The butt of your sick joke
Violins
I'm trying hard to let you go (violins)
