Manchester Orchestra - I'd Rather Have lyrics
[Manchester Orchestra - I'd Rather Have lyrics]
The conversation's colors paint
Themselves on canvas
White lies and motivation were
Standing out so honestly
I'm surprised it didn't hurt your eyes
I think that 'I' is the only
Word in your vocabulary tonight
Those same brown eyes stare straight ahead
And I shut my hand in your door
And I looked around, for a lifeline
Well I would rather have a broken arm
Than have my arms around you
Well I would rather have a broken arm
Than have my arms around you
It took a minute or two to
Gather all of my neurotic thoughts
Before I started to talk way to loud
Loudly I thought to myself
God, how do I find myself
Here again and again?
My same black eyes stared straight ahead
As I took my time with a cigarette
There, enough
I'm still in love with the false hope of us
Stabbed inside my chest
Let me tell you, all about it
Because I would rather have a punctured lung
Than waste my breath on you
Because I would rather have a punctured lung
Than waste my breath on you
Although, my dear:
I would rather have a broken heart
Than give up hope on you
Well I would rather have a broken heart
Than give up hope on you
We've got all the time that we need
