My Best Interest

You are a flower in disguise
Mission accomplished
'Cause I wanna hide
Run and write for you
Into the cold nights
Sleep in bed
Until the morning comes alive
You are this battle in my head
A drink to take down
When I'm depressed
A cure-all for the medicines that I miss
These things that I wanna give up
For you
So take your last drink
And when it settles
You can find the comfort in your arms
But never in your heart
'Cause all those days that I wished
That I could be with you
Was not good for me
Was never good anyway
You are a case of writer's block
Blood clots in the arteries
Of all my hopes and dreams
Your heart is ever cold
So much that I can see
My breath when I speak your name
I can feel all your pain
From all those things
That you've done wrong
So take your last drink
And when it settles
You can find the comfort in your arms
But never in your heart
'Cause all those days that I wished
That I could be with you
Was not good for me
Was never good anyway
Open up your window to me
Tell me you love me
Tell me I'm the only one
Open up your window to me
Well I hope the sound of my name
Makes your skin crawl
Makes your bones ache
This is for all of those wrongs
I can't right
The scary things in the night
The places I wanna go
'Cause God, I miss my home
If I had just one more chance
I swear I'd make this right
I swear I'd say all those things
I couldn't say
I wanted to say those words
So take your last drink
And when it settles
You can find the comfort in your arms
But never in your heart
'Cause all those days that I wished
That I could be with you
Was not good for me
Was never good anyway
