    [Verse 1]
    My honey’s heart is blue and a second offbeat
    Always tugging at me like he’s running out of daylight
    Yeah, my baby acts cool but they all know something ain’t right, ain’t right
    Only acting this cool when he’s walking with me
    1998 forever and a day
    I keep the pictures hanging where the world can see ‘em
    I hope we die today
    Save me from another late night of red eyes
    But then the morning comes
    You were there looking for me but I
    I was gone, turned my back for a moment and
    You had fallen apart
    [Verse 2]
    They’ve been promising the lights as we beg for our lives
    Selling pages of the times we’ve been waiting on
    Now the weight’s too much and I can’t hold you anymore
    How much of a cruel year can you call my fault?
    Not even the memories are immortal
    Terrified on this side of a conversation
    A conversation we’ll never come back from
    I’ll never live it down if I never get around it
    Cause goddammit, I did it to myself in hindsight
    I liked him cause his rule was do whatever you like and I tried alright
    Now I’ll wear these scars for life
    I loved you when it hurt inside to
    But in the low light
    You know I’d do anything for you
    [Chorus]
    You know I’d do anything for you
    You know it’s true cause I’ve said it to you
    Held in my arms, I swore I’d be good to you
    Then sat and watched as you walked away from me
    [Outro]
    Christ is cruel but you're so crueler

    i got into this song at a time where i was with someone i knew it wouldnt work out with. we tried so hard but it wasnt in our control. i felt it slipping away in slow motion. how much of a cruel year can you call my fault? on days where it felt like too much id always show them random ethel cain songs and we'd sit and listen to them together. ill never forget sitting side by side by them listening to this song. i love them and i love this song.

    i feel so restless so ill just write it here! i recently met someone, we went on a date two days ago. around that time i listened a lot to this. he's the all black clothing type of man, silver hoops in his ears. we had a surreal night and at the end he held me so tight, i immediately for some reason thought of this song. he kissed me goodbye, and i'm really scared i'm never going to see him again, or that we won't be together. but i try not to think about that. all i have control over is the way i come across, but i desperately want to know him in a deeper way than i do now.
    "I hope we die today
    Save me from another late night of red eyes"

    My dad was Fed swat at Waco .. It turned into a military problem .. 'stand down' is always gonna be a problem . All they had to do was back off for a minute. Unfortunately this government doesn't know how to do that . Media decided to make an example of them. People who want to live off grid. .. "christ is cool, but you're so cooler."
