Verse 1 – I heard your laugh from the back of the bar And it sounded like you’d never met me You were leaning in close to someone else’s ear— That’s not what it was, and you know it I was only killing time in the way you used to When you swore you were just “getting some air” Verse 2 – I kept the shirt you hated in the drawer by the bed Like a dare I never took Every morning I thought about throwing it out But you didn’t, because you wanted me to see it To remember every stupid fight Like a trophy for surviving Pre-Chorus – Together (overlapping) We keep loading the same bullets Into the same tired gun You want me guilty, you want me gone I want the truth, but it wouldn’t last long So I’ll take the blame, if you take the rest If you take the rest If you take the rest You never shut the kitchen drawers all the way And I swear it’s why I could never sleep— You’re really gonna blame me for that? Like the small things weren’t just the smoke From something bigger we never named :Every window was an exit for you Every door was a trap for me We could’ve walked out the same way once But we waited until the floor gave in You want me guilty, you want me gone I want the truth, but it wouldn’t last long So I’ll take the blame, if you take the rest If you take the rest If you take the rest Outro – And the shirt’s still there in the drawer And the drawer’s still open And the shirt’s still there in the drawer And the shirt’s still there in the drawer And the drawer’s still open
