Used to Be

It was a dangerous summer
You came at me like a bar fight
It makes you wonder
If we were different humans at a different time
If we both would've tried working
If we held each other tight
Maybe a kid would've made it worth it
But there's just something I don't

Recognize (Burning down Los Angeles)
The way it used to be (Cigarettes and whiskey kiss)
You don't have to lie (Leave me with all of this)
But you don't have to leave (Your cigarettes and whiskey kiss)

I guess change is the only constant
Maybe life isn't that strange
5 long years into 14 boxes
A new apartment, but without the rings
If it doesn't make you feel like the dream ain't real then, baby, that's your smoking gun
You don't have to justify or tell me why, but it might help you become
Someone I don't

Recognize (Burning down Los Angeles)
The way it used to be (Cigarettes and whiskey kiss)
You don't have to lie (Leave me with all of this)
But you don't have to leave (Your cigarettes and whiskey kiss)

You can clear out the evidence we were ever here before
Like you tore up that carpet and put down a wood floor
But it's an old goddamn house, it'll creak and it'll moan anyways

Recognize (Burning down Los Angeles)
The way it used to be (Cigarettes and whiskey kiss)
You don't have to lie (Leave me with all of this)
But you don't have to leave (Your cigarettes and whiskey kiss)
