I just want to get the straight from you

up to now I’ve trusted everything you said was true

but – it turns out – most of it was not

looks like we live in different worlds

going down slow

going down slow

I can smell the burn

you’ve got your so-called friends to back you up

& I get your body sometimes

but it is not enough

to only be someone who makes you come

it’s way past time to say goodbye

going down slow

going down slow

I can smell the burn

I really thought this thing we had would last

but my foolish wishful thinking suddenly collapsed

so what if I take a drink or two

I’m twelve steps away from innocence

going down slow

going down slow

I can feel the burn
