Better Off Dreaming – Not Everyone Can Be Like Callie lyrics

NOT EVERYONE CAN BE LIKE CALLIE

VERSE
Remove the thoughts from your head
And all the blood in your veins
Take all the feelings in your heart and then you'll see me
I'm standing here with nothing
You've taken all the things that made this house a home
And I don't need this

PRECHORUS
You never saw what you think you saw
And I've never been here but I swear you've said that before
I'm a liar and a cheat an adulterer and a drunk
To beat it all to beat it all

CHORUS
You've done nothing wrong but oh the things that I've seen
And if these walls could talk, they'd sell you out
And if I had one chance just to take it back, you'd steal that too

VERSE II
He's not right. All the drugs are setting in
And his addictions are eating him alive
I'm finding ways and making plans
To leave this place and never have to wash my hands
The blood won't stain. It always goes away

OUTRO
And I'm drinking up the ink from my pens
Before they evaporate when this house burns to the ground
The blood won't stain. It always goes away
