Pet Names

I'm sick, I think I'm on the brink

Turn the TV up so that I can fall asleep

And drown out all my thoughts

The ones in which you love to haunt me

Stoned, feet on the cement

Cursing at my cell phone,

All the way to your apartment

Pressing my ear to the door

Oh, I can hear that you're not alone, no

Do you think fate is just a lie

We tell ourselves

To help us fall asleep at night?

I'm waking up sideways, laying in the driveway

Trying to forget the thought of you

I'm drowning my sorrow even though it's hollow

Taking tequila shots at noon

That's why I followed you home

Even though it's insane

Watch you silence your phone

Whenever it shows my name

Tell me a beautiful lie

Tell me it's only for tonight

Tell me he's only your friend

Say you remember when

I used to call you miss and you kissed me on the neck

Used to call me baby

Now you never call me back

I swear it's this game that we play,

If only you would see it that way

Do you think we could spend the night indulging ourselves

Just to recall what it was like?

I'm waking up sideways, laying in the driveway,

Trying to forget the thought of you

I'm drowning my sorrow even though it's hollow

Taking tequila shots at noon

That's why I followed you home even though it's insane

Watch you silence your phone whenever it shows my name

I can't let you go

I can't let you go

I'm waking up sideways, laying in the driveway

Trying to forget the thought of you

I'm drowning my sorrow even though it's hollow

Taking tequila shots at noon

That's why I followed you home even though it's insane

Watch you silence your phone whenever it shows my name
