23

Half as drunk as I thought I'd be by now, that's good

I can still see the people around me change shape

Speak their minds and pretend they were misunderstood

Preachin' about sin over lines of *****

Even when you're not here, it becomes about you

They all want me to tell them your story

You broke in and stole china from our living room

Kinda makes all the other parts boring

You stand over half a foot taller than me

Your marks on the wall of the weight room

Naive to believe you would come back and see

If I could finally take you

Oh I'll beat your *** till the morning

You know I've been running all this time

Sprinting my way past your bedroom

Lifting the weight of you off my mind

'Cause if I never see you again

You could be anything I want

23, clean in the engine heat

Teachin' me how the thing runs

Stay gone, won't you stay gone

Stay gone, Stay gone

Tattooed your initials into my right arm

So I'd see your name when I lift up a drink

There ain't nothing else here worth catching up on

So I hope that it's warm wherever you sleep

And I've got a feeling that won't go away

The doctors are calling it just moving on

I still ball up my fists when they mention your name

No one gets to talk **** but the ones you've **** on

Oh I'll beat your *** in the morning

You know I've been running all this time

Sprinting my way past your bedroom

Lifting the weight of you off my mind

'Cause if I never see you again

You could be anything I want

23, clean in the engine heat

Teachin' me how the thing runs

Stay gone, stay gone, won't you stay gone

Stay gone, Stay gone

Yeah I'll beat your *** till the morning

You know I've been running all this time

Sprinting my way past your bedroom

Lifting the weight of you off my mind

'Cause if I never see you again

And you could be anything I want

23, clean in the engine heat

Teachin' me how the thing runs

23, clean in the engine heat

It can all be the way that it was

If you stay gone, stay gone

Won't you stay gone, stay gone
