Mess Lyrics by Woes

Awful Truth

2019

[Chorus]
So tell me is it fucked up
That I can tell you how I fucked my life up
Exactly how and when I fucked it all up
Exactly where I was when I first gave up

[Verse 1]
Tried to call you but you would never pick up
Apologized, but you never gave a fuck
I told you, the whole truth, I always did
Told you, I loved you, you’re over it

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like a bad dream, it's not getting any better
I’ve had a rough year and I’m down to do whatever
Gave you all my pain, none of my heart
Came home to hear, "We finally drifted apart"

[Chorus]
You were the last one to see me breathing
And yours was the last face to cross my mind
And as I felt my spirit leaving my body
All I could think about is the mess that I left you behind

[Verse 2]
So can you tell me straight up
If you woke up tomorrow and our lives swapped
Could you do any better with what I’ve got?
Or would it break you down until you gave up?

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like a bad dream, it's not getting any better
I’ve had a rough year and I’m down to do whatever
Gave you all my pain, none of my heart
Came home to hear, came home to hear

[Chorus]
You were the last one to see me breathing
And yours was the last face to cross my mind
And as I felt my spirit leaving my body
All I could think about is the mess that I left you behind
(The mess that I left you)
The mess that I left you behind

[Bridge]
Don’t waste your life, it’s too short
Too short to get what you want
Don’t waste your life, it’s too short
Too short to get what you want

[Outro]
You were the last one to see me breathing
And yours was the last face to cross my mind
