Eat the Apple

The past three weeks, you spent two nights with me at home
Same three weeks, I spent three weeks feeling alone
In a house made of glass where I tip toe and it cracks
So imagine if I had a little nerve to throw a stone
I tried to fix it, I tried to talk about it and then help
Shoulda' known that you can't help someone if they won't help them self
You'll admit that there are problems in a moment of weakness
But you deny it as soon as you numb the pain that you felt
And I've enabled you, wanted to stop it but wasn't able to
Thought that you would realize the problem, I was mistaken, too
I've lost all my ambition to even debate with you
So chase the dragon, but I know the dragons chasing you
When's the last time you said something nice about me?
Can you tell me one thing you even like about me?
How often do you think about a life without me?
How often do you think about a life without me?

Eat the apple, go ahead and bite it, please don't fight it
You might like it, and everything that's like it
Eat the apple, come on, have a taste and try it
See what you've been missing when you bring all of your taste alive
Eat the apple

You spent 9 hours at the bar on Christmas eve
My daughter asking for her mom while I explain she had to leave
You told me you were only stopping by for just a drink
When you finally made it home, all I felt was mere relief
Never know if you'll make it home safe, I feel ashamed when I defend you
Third party perspective knows that I meant to
But every corner that I turn is feeling regretful
When every move I make only upsets you and I'm tired
I'm so tired, I'm tired of hearing you say that you're tired
I tell you that I am and you one up me, I'm a liar
I never ask for anything, you treat me like I'm needy
But you need me to do more because apathy you admire
When's the last time you said something nice about me?
Can you tell me one thing you even like about me?
How often do you think about a life without me?
How often do you think about a life without me?

Eat the apple, go ahead and bite it, please don't fight it
You might like it, and everything that's like it
Eat the apple, come on, have a taste and try it
See what you've been missing when you bring all of your taste alive

I woke up to an empty bed on Easter Sunday
You woke up in jail, too drunk but this the one day
That I hoped would be the one day, but it's the too far from day
Absolve yourself of blame and back to drinking within one day
Now it's every day, at every moment you can make it happen
Turn me to the scapegoat, and blame me for the bridge-less gap as
If I had a thing to do with all the things that make you sad and
We both know the truth about deeper cause of all the madness
I promise I won't ever tell you I told you so
But in the moment I need you to know that I told you though
I'm just wishin' that you could have seen it and slowed your roll
You didn't and this is the minute my shoulders broke
When's the last time you said something nice about me?
Can you tell me one thing you even like about me?
How often do you think about a life without me?
How often do you think about a life without me?

Eat the apple, go ahead and bite it, please don't fight it
You might like it, and everything that's like it
Eat the apple, come on, have a taste and try it
See what you've been missing when you bring all of your taste alive
Eat the apple

Sometimes our struggles with temptation
Can put an unbearable strain on our relations
Amplified by when we begin to feel complacent
And that's when our demons escape containment
