  • Say the words I cannot say
    Say them on another day
    Fragile words like these will cut your tongue
    Was I good enough?
    Was I bad enough?
    When I wanted more, yeah, you had enough

    But nobody's gonna try for you
    Nobody's gonna do like I for you

    And every slow-lit cigarette
    that nervous hands can barely get the courage
    I could always feel your eyes
    And those dresses you made look like gowns
    You're a sinner but the devil even turned you down

    'Cause nobody's gonna try for you
    Nobody's gonna do like I for you
    And nobody's gonna try for you
    And nobody's gonna lie for you
    And nobody's gonna do like I for you

    Hold me like you never could
    I'll hold you like I said I would
    Air or light won't breathe nor shine between
    With your feather lips, yeah you fly away
    Well I hope they come back down someday

    'Cause nobody's gonna try for you
    Nobody's gonna do like I for you
    Somebody's getting by for you
    I don't bend, I just break in two
    Somebody like me I'd die for you Writer/s: NICK WHEELER, TYSON RITTER
