lydia von hof - survivor's guilt lyrics
[verse 1]
it was nice to see you, but it hurt to hurt you
and the rain was pretty, but it kinda hurt too
the way the words fell out my mouth
i knew i’d make you cry
l!ck the weather off your lips and say goodbye
[verse 2]
i always thought you’d be the one to break my heart
i put airbags in my chest and armor on my arms
’cause your laugh alone’s enough
to leave a good man dead
but it’s me with the survivor guilt instead
[chorus]
and i will never live this down
this will haunt me all my waking days
a good thing never stays too long
ain’t that the truth for sure
it’s gotta end someday
but i didn’t think i’d be the one
to cut it short
[verse 3]
i keep having this one scary little dream
where i tell you what had happened
as you turn into concrete
and i have to hold your hand
and feel your knuckles as they dry
a lot less scary than how it went that night
[bridge]
and i’m not sure who to be now
i’ve never seen this side before
how to walk away from broken glass
and leave your lover on the floor
there’s nothing to be mad at
what a bore
to be the one
to cut it short
[outro]
there ain’t no going back now
i can see that loud and clear as day
you’re going far away from here
and that’s alright with me
you’re doing what you said, my dear
how sorry can i be
when i can’t say sorry anymore?
i’ve tried, but the word in my mouth is getting sore
’cause i didn’t mean it the first few times
but oh, i mean it now
oh, i wouldn’t want you to hear it anyhow
