I Was Only Going Out Lyrics by Loney Dear

Dear John

0

I was only going out to get some air
I was only going out to get back in
By the time I saw the city lights fade out
In the backseat of your car that's when I found
And I wish it didn't bother me no more
All the things that made me dark for such a time
And I'd sell my heart to make it right
I could run from it, but it always catches up
And I'm always sad, always something in the way
And I most don't like myself or what I do
Would you listen if I told you I was wrong
Would you take it back? Will you take it back?
Yeah I used to make you songs so easily
Things have turned so different from now
Cause I'm always sad and I always turn you down
Don't take me down, don't take me down
How I told you about the titans in my dreams
How the large ships that are floating next to me
And I dreamt my bed was lying in the part
And the white heart of propulsion next to me
And I used to make you songs so easily
But things have turned so different from now
Cause I'm always sad and I always turn you down
Don't take me down, don't take me down
I get a fever when I try to get along
And I really don't think I'm okay
Cause I"m always sad and I always miss the boat
Don't take it back, don't take me down
Da na na na na na na
