Gagger - Take Me Home Lyrics

So it goes
I read that in a book that you gave me
And so you went
Like a stranger I just stood there waving

We set it all
Out on the table
A feast for two
Without any flavor

You've made new friends
They seem alright I guess
We still hang out
But it just feels like a test
God I need a rest

At your parties it's so hard to take my hand out my pockets
I can still make you laugh as if I've any other talent
These days it's hard to admit that I prefer a night with strangers
Than to spin the same old stories and pretend it's not over

Take me home
Take me home

These nights seem long
And they're only getting longer
That morning glow
I remember being stronger

Than this
I can't wake up
On the floor
Anymore

So here we are
Smoking cigarettes at 4 in the morning
The same damn place
That we've been these past 6 years
God this never was the plan

But when you sit on the curb with the ringing in your ear
It's hard not to submit, to waste away the years
Every shotgun done in hatred, every Lonestar downed in spite
Thinking over and over if I died right now that's fine
When it gets easy to say 'I'm sorry I couldn't make it'
And the shame it goes away to say that you were way too wasted
Every night spent downtown is a night that's full of wonder
If you ignore the voice inside your head screaming over and over

Take me home
