Cloudy Eyes

For once in my life I'm at a loss for words
When it comes to what I think you deserve
You'll drink enough to kill yourself in time
Between this habit you have, and holding your breath
For me to come around and wish you the best

I'll bury the hatchet you left in my back
You can have what you stole, it wasn't worth that

All those nights that you refused to let me drive you home
Sober enough to tell me you loved me and that you hoped that you could be a man like me someday
You could chase your dreams and stop chasing the pain
Of living every day-to-day
Just for a bottle, to cope in some way

I'll bury the hatchet you left in my back
You can have what you stole, it wasn't worth that
All the lessons I learned and the bridges that burned
I'll never chase a love that I have to earn
I've grown up, now it's your turn (ARGH)

As long as you find your worth
I swear to God it's worth this hurt
I've waited too long for you to write one happy song
And I know just what you meant
When you said you're not broke, just bent

I can see past those bloodshot cloudy eyes
That once told our story
Before I was replaced with a 40
I swear I'll see them again

I'll bury the hatchet you left in my back

You can have what you stole, it wasn't worth that
All the lessons I've learned and bridges that burned
I'll never chase a love that I have to earn
I've grown up, now it's your turn (ARGH)
