lyrics

Tell me that it’s history guns in both my hands
Hiding in the hickory trees beside the dam
I can’t name a place that I wouldn’t feel alone with you

Teachers in my high school knew that I was lying when I snuck away to bike across the city
I was always kind of a liar but you knew

I lie to you
When you tell me that you love her but you haven’t said anything
I say go ahead
You and me
Will always be together if only in the way that we break and rip and rend

Tell me that it’s over the body’s in the lake
Details of the murder written on your face
Lookin for a place where I can get lunch with you

I was setting fires long before we met
Teachers in my high school never should’ve let
Me get away with things nobody should do

I lie to you
When you tell me that you love her but you haven’t said anything
I say go ahead
You and me
Will always be together if only in the way that we break and rip and rend
