Briston Maroney - Why lyrics

Half a bottle down
A mile out of town and it hit's me
Everything I'd come to love was
Comin' back to get me
Blue light in the rearview left me
With a clear view unloaded
Got a lot of love
But I don't really know how to show it

And I grew on my own, I told you so
I did not need someone to hold
Back my heart the way you've done
And you were doin'

But why can't I be someone else tonight?
I'd give anything to make this right
And you don't know what
You've been missin', babe
So won't you turn off the
Lights and come back inside
And then you'd find you'd rather not

Back into the black
I was ready for somebody different
Rememberin' these days as much
As I'm forgettin'
If you're losin' tracks
Steppin' back and you know it
Count up all your friends
Is there anybody left to ignore this?

But why can't I be someone else tonight?
And I'd give anything to make this right
And you don't know what
You've been missin', babe
So won't you turn off the
Lights and come back inside
And then you'd find you'd rather not

And I will hold my breath
Until I cannot anymore
And why do I pray to a God
That I know I can't afford?
Am I wrong to be confused if I
Am still in love with you?
Am I wrong to feel anything at all?

But why can't I be someone else tonight?
Oh, I'd give anything to make this right
Oh, I'd give anything to make this right
I'd give anything to make this right
