Carpet Burn

You only cry when you're mad
Wake with the fear that you had said something bad
Told me how you lost your dad
And you get scared you got the same damn demons in you

We're lying counting the scars
This one was carpet burn from fucking in my first car
You hate that he broke your heart
And you've been single since the person who you lost it to

I'll take every moment I get
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
I'll take all the time we got left
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you then

Flew there to spend the weekend (I flew there overnight)
You met a friend while I asked for another cigarette
He asked me "how long's it been?" (but I don't know myself)
I like the people here, I tell them while I'm staring at you

I'll take every moment I get
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
I'll take all the time we got left
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you

When I needed to hold you
But you were petrified
I don't think we were ready
To see it in this light
Well we blamed it on the timing
It always would have been
What could have been

I'll take every moment I get
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
I'll take all the time we got left
But it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Yeah, it gets me down that I didn't know you then
