Black Fridays

We pulled over by the high way ay ay ay
That night to Texas
Crying on you in the frontseat
While you were texting
And I could see in your eyes
What you told me was a lie
But I took what I could with hope
We fell back on the road
Our backs to the cold we fell into
That Thanksgiving night

You said you'd never be like he was
You said you'd never leave me because
Because you said you loved me
You said you'd need me forever in your arms
You said you'd never be like he was
Like he was and here you are

Acupuncture to my soul
Family ties and Dominoes they fall
So effortlessly in place
You sleep without me like it's no pain
I weep on you like the storming rain outside
I think that night you died

You said you'd never be like he was
You said you'd never leave me because
Because you said you loved me
You said you'd need me forever in your arms
You said you'd never be like he was
Like he was and here you are

Up before dawn, Dew on the lawn
I drink my coffee, you just yawn as if you don't care
As if you don't know I'm staring right into you
You give me your keys, I'm not ready to leave
But I guess you are ready for me, to go
So I won't make a fuss
I can catch the bus I'm fine
I'm fine

You said you'd never be like he was
You said you'd never leave me because
Because you said you loved me
You said you'd need me forever in your arms
You said you'd never be like he was
Like he was and here you are

Here you are
There he was
And here you are.
