Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You found me

Curled on the mattress

Teeth like glass

Hands that shook

You said

“Baby

This ain’t living”

I just laughed

And took another look

You held my head up

When I was drowning

In the dust

Of my own lies

You stayed through

Every cold December

Til your hope

Finally died

[Chorus]

This is the last time I let you down

‘cause there won’t be

Another round

You walked away

And I stayed bound

To the devil that I kiss

When you’re not around

I lost the only thing

I ever did right

For one more hit

One more night

[Verse 2]

You packed your books

Your faded sweater

Left your key

On the kitchen plate

Said

“I’m tired

Of talking to your shadow

I’m tired

Of dying while I wait”

I swore

I’d meet you in the morning

Clear eyes

Steady breath

But the sun came up

On an empty mirror

Just me

And the scent of death

[Chorus]

This is the last time I let you down

‘cause there won’t be

Another round

You walked away

And I stayed bound

To the devil that I kiss

When you’re not around

I lost the only thing

I ever did right

For one more hit

One more night

[Bridge]

Your coffee cup

Still on the counter

Lipstick ring

Faded pink

I trace it

With these busted fingers

Shake so hard

I spill my drink (oh God)

If I had

Just one more promise

And a spine

That wouldn’t bend

Would you hear

A word I’m saying

Or just whisper

“This is the end”?

[Chorus]

This is the last time I let you down

And it’s the one

That counts the most

I traded you

For a slow decay

For a ghost

That loves me close

You were the only thing

I ever did right

Now it’s just me

And this poison

Every night
