Unsteady

by Jubilee Riots

on Penny Black (2014)

One more up - another one down
Maybe we can take another spin around town
I'm not doing much for you, baby
Won't you tell me what you need?
You think I'm in the dark, yeah you think I can't see
The trouble in your eyes when you're looking at me
Something feels different now, and I can't breathe

When I see you now I get a little unsteady
Don't go breaking my heart before I'm ready
You were trouble right from the start
You're breaking my heart
I know it's going to leave me feeling heartsick and hollow
Words won't make it any easier to swallow
Whatever else you are
You're my favorite scar

The first time I saw you I was broken and bruised
You were holding up the bar and I had nothing to lose
It's all a little hazy now, tell me
When did we get so damn proud?
Made a few mistakes, but I made them with you
And every time we said that we were gonna pull through
Something feels different now and it's not me

When I see you now I get a little unsteady
Don't go breaking my heart before I'm ready
You were trouble right from the start
You're breaking my heart
I know it's going to leave me feeling heartsick and hollow
Words won't make it any easier to swallow
Whatever else you are
You're my favorite scar

Maybe we can figure out a fix for this
Maybe we can still be friends
Maybe this is the way that it ends
All I want is a way to forget
We're only human and I'm not about to quit on us yet
Maybe if we take some time we can heal

When I see you now I get a little unsteady
Don't go breaking my heart before I'm ready
You were trouble right from the start
You're breaking my heart
I know it's going to leave me feeling heartsick and hollow
Words won't make it any easier to swallow
Whatever else you are
You're my favorite scar
