To a Fault

Sitting in the silence
Holding on my breath
Counting tears in my whiskey
With your lighter in my hand
How you play into my weakness
Knowing like a dog
I'll be there

Lately I keep thinking
What if we never met
And I passed you on the sidewalk
Never even turned my head
It was sweet just for a second
Pretending only lasts
So long

If I could kill you with distance
Or at least I could try
I'm at fault with forgiveness
And I've crossed every line

I wanna bury the memory
When it haunts me at night
All the months that I've given
Just to keep you alive
I know I've tried
I know I've tried

Easier to hate you
Write your name in broken glass
But they love to talk about you
I just smile and force a laugh
How my innocence is fading
You were there to rip it from my hand

If I could kill you with distance
Or at least I could try
I'm at fault with forgiveness
And I've crossed every line

I wanna bury the memory
When it haunts me at night
All the months that I've given
Just to keep you alive
I know I've tried
I know I've tried

I know I've tried
I know I've tried
I know I've tried
I know I've tried
I know I've tried

Be the girl by your door like you want me to
I'm loyal to a fault what's your damn excuse

Be the girl by your door like you want me to
I'm loyal to a fault what's your damn excuse
