(I'll Never Love You) Like I Should

I woke up one morning and I didn't get myself a beer
To start drinking every day is my biggest fear
So I wait until the late afternoon
Can I start drinking yet, is it nighttime soon?

And I understand if you wanna leave
I would leave myself if I could
But just promise me
That when you leave, you leave for good
I'll never love you like I should

I really thought that we were meant to be
Until I heard myself say "it's not you, it's me"
When will I stop acting like the shitty men I hate?
Will I learn to trust myself or is it too late?

And I understand if you wanna leave
I would leave myself if I could
But just promise me
That when you leave, you leave for good
I'll never love you like I should
So I'll just keep on drinking like you said I would

I know that you are sad because of me
But it makes me glad to think that you are free
Of all the pain and all the darkness I have caused
I hope you find a brighter way when I get lost

And I understand why you wanna leave
I would leave myself if I could
But just promise me
That when you leave, you leave for good
I'll never love you like I should
So I'll just keep on drinking like you said I would
'Cause I'll never love you like I should
