Bad Suns - The One I Used To Love

Scarlet lipstick
In the backseat of a New York City taxi
It was raining
It was that night when you asked me
“When’s the last time we were happy?”
You were swaying

So I sighed
Rolled my eyes
Almost made it to the end of the night
Then I had to say exactly the wrong thing
At the wrong time

Silence filled the air with violence
You could cut it with a knife

Now I’m lost at sea
At what cost I’m free
On an odyssey of apologies
My dependencies got the best of me
Now the rest of me struggles endlessly
But you’ll always be the one I used to love
The one I used to love

Tears were flowing
Instead of champagne
In the first class of an airplane
What an upgrade

When I landed is when the text came
You were asking me to explain what I can’t say
Filled the void, got destroyed
But the hole in my heart still remained, yeah
Then I had to say exactly the wrong thing
Once again

Silence filled the air with violence
You could cut it with a knife

Now I’m lost at sea
At what cost I’m free
On an odyssey of apologies
My dependencies got the best of me
Now the rest of me struggles endlessly
But you’ll always be the one I used to love

Forgot who I am, so I swam in the ocean
I fuck up the plan, just to feel some emotion
Drink all that I can, like I want to be broken
I don’t give a damn, when I’m lost in the moment

(Nobody listens to me
Not me, especially
So I drink all that I can
Always one hell of a plan
Feel like a shell of a man
So in the ocean I swam)

Now I’m lost at sea
At what cost I’m free
On an odyssey of apologies
My dependencies got the best of me
Now the rest of me struggles endlessly
But you’ll always be the one I used to love
But you’ll always be the one I used to love
The one I used to love
