You keep on telling me
Why dont you give a fuck
And I wonder how you ever lasted
One day in this town
So baby today is the day that we die
When we see everything and nothing at all
The reason you threw it away
Was so that you could say today
You gave me hope
Well you might was well give up
Because today is almost over and
Tomorrow doesnt seem to be any better
At least I know what yesterday brings
And what I learned today
But the door is shut on tomorrow
And You saved the best for last
The word that pierced and faded
The line that you kept in the holster
You scream and ask me to leave
You begged me to throw it away
To leave out yesterday and to ask for the future
I never asked you to say and never said its better this way
Broken hearts never learned from tomorrow
And never did I ever say that i loved you
I didnt promise shit
And you never told me it would be hard
To be this close to the edge
