I Couldn't Love You (Demo) Lyrics
From the start, we weren't sure how to start
You had bad habits, I had a bad heart
I said I'd help you kick the pills
And if my ticker skipped, you'd play the life support
I couldn't love you any more (repeated)
And through the years, it felt like years
Our matching bathrobes felt insincere
You started asking for a ring
I'd hit the ceiling of the affections I could afford
I couldn't love you any more (repeated)
You shut yourself off
And my heart didn't skip
But it drifted away like an iceberg
No, no, no, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In the end, we knew we'd reached the end
Words were said we could never say again
How could you take what you couldn't give?
How could you hate what you couldn't live without before?
I couldn't love you anymore (repeated)
You had bad habits, I had a bad heart
I said I'd help you kick the pills
And if my ticker skipped, you'd play the life support
Our matching bathrobes felt insincere
You started asking for a ring
I'd hit the ceiling of the affections I could afford
And my heart didn't skip
But it drifted away like an iceberg
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Words were said we could never say again
How could you take what you couldn't give?
How could you hate what you couldn't live without before?

I like this version a lot more than the album version. This one kicks ass.
