Gut Punch
Say that you don't want me
'Cause I feel you slipping through my hands
The way I fell for you still haunts me
Guess I just can't help but want what I can't have
Your best friend said she don't know
If you think about me
Or if I need to let it go
But I'm an open book, my love
You give a boy enough hope
To feel like I had you
At least until I fucked it up
Now I don't think I had you at all
'Cause she hit a weak spot
Then she took my clothes off
And I thought you'd care but you didn't
I'd take a gut punch
Or whatever you want
Couldn't hurt worse than the silence
It's hard treading water 'till I'm on your radar
It's hard thinking about you with anyone
You're out living your best life
Doesn't feel right to try and reel you in
I'll see you when I'm in the next life
When these Athens lights ain't making my head spin
'Cause she hit a weak spot
Then she took my clothes off
And I thought you'd care but you didn't
I'd take a gut punch
Or whatever you want
Couldn't hurt worse than the silence
It's hard treading water 'till I'm on your radar
It's hard thinking about you with anyone
'Cause your best friend said she don't know
If you think about me
Or if I need to let it go
But I'm an open book, my love
You gave a boy enough hope
To feel like I had you
At least until I fucked it up
Now I don't think I had you at all
'Cause I feel you slipping through my hands
The way I fell for you still haunts me
Guess I just can't help but want what I can't have
Your best friend said she don't know
If you think about me
Or if I need to let it go
But I'm an open book, my love
You give a boy enough hope
To feel like I had you
At least until I fucked it up
Now I don't think I had you at all
'Cause she hit a weak spot
Then she took my clothes off
And I thought you'd care but you didn't
I'd take a gut punch
Or whatever you want
Couldn't hurt worse than the silence
It's hard treading water 'till I'm on your radar
It's hard thinking about you with anyone
You're out living your best life
Doesn't feel right to try and reel you in
I'll see you when I'm in the next life
When these Athens lights ain't making my head spin
'Cause she hit a weak spot
Then she took my clothes off
And I thought you'd care but you didn't
I'd take a gut punch
Or whatever you want
Couldn't hurt worse than the silence
It's hard treading water 'till I'm on your radar
It's hard thinking about you with anyone
'Cause your best friend said she don't know
If you think about me
Or if I need to let it go
But I'm an open book, my love
You gave a boy enough hope
To feel like I had you
At least until I fucked it up
Now I don't think I had you at all
