Drowning Memories

[verse1:]
Late nights and early mornings, my heart breaks as the radio plays
'Cause I can't seem to escape the thought of you
Yeah, of you

[chorus:]
And it's these song lyrics, you see
It's these lyrics that make me bleed
'Cause they don't let me forget, don't let me breathe
They're drowning me in memories

[verse2:]
Like how the blue of your eye
Matches the color of the dawn sky
And how the feel of your arms and your voice were my only safety
(But you're no longer here to save me)
I miss the scent you left on my pillow in your wake
All our inside jokes, private laughs
And oh! The sound your kiss made against mine

[chorus:]
And it's these song lyrics, you see
It's these lyrics that make me bleed
'Cause they don't let me forget, don't let me breathe
They're drowning me in memories

[verse3:]
How about the time you slipped that ring on my finger
While we made blueprints for our future?
All the movies we saw, the times you made me scream
Do you still want to borrow the Tahoe with me?
Just hold my hand one last time
(I want to memorize the feel of your skin against mine)
Don't break my heart as easily as you break eye contact

[chorus:]
And it's these song lyrics, you see
It's these lyrics that make me bleed
'Cause they don't let me forget, don't let me breathe
They're drowning me in memories

'Cause I can't hear a song without thinking of you
And I know you're not thinking of me
Please, just help me drown my memories, baby
Before they drown me,
Yeah, before they drown me
