Never Rome - Foxblood

Lay your head down, sing me to sleep as I come undone

I fell out of love with myself

I’ve got a bad heart, in more ways than one

Gotta tell you, the last few days, weeks, months and years have been kind of

rough

Drink in the dark for a while, so I go out with a smile and I guess that’ll be

enough

I’m sorry that I couldn’t make the pieces fit

I’m so far adrift

In an ocean you don’t even know exists

This is more than a rainy day, this is a hurricane

We are one

Empires pulled apart by stones

We are one

But we were never Rome

Sit alone at home pick apart my thoughts remind myself, even the best things

run their course

Sitting, drinking, trying to bring myself back from the brink

But I’m a lost cause, and I’m starting to sink

So I pick myself up, write myself off

I’m shooting for death, but clearly not doing enough

I’m not doing enough

Fell by the wayside, getting high more than ever now

And I never found the strength, to put the bottle down, my fire’s burnt out

My old lover, my old friend

I’ve been thinking about dying again

My hands have got the shakes as I put pen to paper in your name for the last

time

Let myself down time, after time

Tell myself lie after lie

And the sun shines lightly through the window pane

I think this could be the morning of my final day

And I need you to do this final thing for me

There’s still gold in my heart, so bury me deep

My old lover, my old friend

I’ve been thinking about dying again

My old lover, my old friend

Everyone of you means everything

And the sun shines lightly through the window pane

I think this could be the morning of my final day

And I need you to do this final thing for me

There’s still gold in my heart, so bury me deep
