Counterfeit - Framing Hanley

I take the backroads on my way home

I kill the radio and ride in silence

I really don’t know what I’m doin' with my life

I call my best friend, she says I’m over this

It’s 4 AM and you should not be drivin'

I’ve really gotta go, look what’s becomin' of your life

Soon, you’ll wake up sorry

Cursin' at the morning, no

Don’t call me back

Let’s leave it at that

I said, one time is too many, girl

I fucked up plenty, but

I need you back

I need you bad

She said I can’t hold on

To somethin' that isn’t there for me to hold onto

It’s all my fault

For thinkin' I could be the one who changes you

And after all the things we’ve been through

I keep runnin' back to rescue

The one I lost

I can’t hold on

I’m a counterfeit, I’m not okay with it

Puttin' on a show and losin' touch

Back to the basics, I’ve gotta figure out my life

I push and pulled until the root was exposed

Remindin' me of who I was long ago

How will I ever make this right?

So if, I say I’m sorry

Can you ignore the warnings?

Will you, take me back?

I need you back

She said I can’t hold on

To somethin' that isn’t there for me to hold onto

It’s all my fault

For thinkin' I could be the one who changes you

And after all the things we’ve been through

I keep runnin' back to rescue

The one I lost

I fought so hard to keep you near

Then I finally realized

You reopen the scars then disappear

Leavin' me empty inside

So you can say you’re sorry

Tell me not to worry, but

We can’t get it back

The love that we had

I can’t hold on

To somethin' that isn’t there for me to hold onto

It’s all my fault

For thinkin' I could be the one who changes you

After everything we’ve been through

I keep runnin' back to rescue

The one I lost

I can’t hold on
