lyrics

Verse 1

I always said, that i'd be the one who stayed,
But that was clear well before yesterday,
So I light a cigarette and smoke all my troubles away,
Walk on the beach, a lifetime of finding small parts,
Of memories seep through the cracks in my shoes, to my heart,
You're infused, in m life, every single part,
Now your memory is bleeding through my art,

Chorus

Step out the door, on the first day that i'm my own man,
Try to prove to myself I don't need your legs to stand,
I walk a while to drag my body out the sand,
Only to find, that the grains have bled into my hands,

Verse 2

Two new girls, two long months and I remain a mess,
Pip i'm sorry for being a dick I was just looking for progress,
Adding more mistakes, whilst shaking off the excess,
It came clear, that heartbreak brings out the worst in us all,
We'll drink up, throw up, just fuck up, then begin to talk,
Vent my heart to my friends, on a bathroom floor,
Cause my darling, now I miss you even more,

Chorus

Step out the door, on the first day that i'm my own man,
Try to prove to myself I don't need your legs to stand,
I walk a while to drag my body out the sand,
Only to find, that the grains have bled into my hands,

Bridge

Okay I'm sat here still venting, still angry at what you did,
Yeah babe just chuck it all away, fuck up the happiness that we had,
My friends are fuck ups too, but at this cheer up thing they're not bad
Okay I'm sat here still venting, still angry at what you did,
Yeah babe just chuck it all away, fuck up the happiness that we had,
My friends are fuck ups too, but at this cheer up thing they're not bad...

Chorus

Step out the door after three months of being my own man,
Yeah the world still looks the same, perhaps a little less fake tan,
But that's the last negative thing I think I can stand,
Cause darling, you made my year,
So I hope the next guy is okay, and you don't throw that one away,
