It was my persistence, wasn't it

A lack of trust you won't admit

I'll never settle now or before
I wrote a thousand songs because of it

Curse my choices, bite my lip

A hundred ripped up notes

I'm living with your ghost
This is a cold hard punch in the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore
It was my lack of charm wasn't it

Or the guilt I wrap around my neck

I'm running out of ways to move on

It's my heart that burns of wickedness

I stole your youth and ran with it

I'm hearing on repeat, the sounds of your beat
A cold hard punch in the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for


I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore
And this song would've worked

If I just would admit

All the life cuts to clean up

When the trust is broken

We go far enough

You're too right for us

You can't be, can't be over it
A cold hard punch in the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to your jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for
It was my persistence, wasn't it

A lack of trust you won't admit

I'll never settle now or before
It's my heart that burns of wickedness

I stole your youth and ran with it

It's time for you to take what you came here for
I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to youâ??

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore
