Bad Excuse

[Chorus: Cole Calico]
You tell me you didn't know what I had in mind
Then you said "Give it all up, know where to draw the line"
You had me running in circles trying to live a lie
I couldn't catch my breath enough to save my life
There's something running at me in the shape of you
And when it hit me I fell so hard I spit out the truth
Had me searching for nothing, I didn't have a clue
I couldn't come up with anything but a bad excuse

[Verse 1: Cole Calico]
Been so spaced out, I've been hiding my face now
I've been keeping my head down
If I see you might pass out
Don't know what I'm talking about
I just keep running my mouth
Saw you heading straight at me I couldn't make a sound
And I keep getting closer
But I don't think I'll get my closure
And I blew my cover
I just keep on thinking it'll all be over
As soon as you see my face
You say I didn't come the way you wanted
Take off running at a moments notice
Collided with me, I could feel my heart stop
And now you're leaving me here lying on the asphalt now

[Chorus: Cole Calico]
You tell me you didn't know what I had in mind
Then you said "Give it all up, know where to draw the line"
You had me running in circles trying to live a lie
I couldn't catch my breath enough to save my life
There's something running at me in the shape of you
And when it hit me I fell so hard I spit out the truth
Had me searching for nothing, I didn't have a clue
I couldn't come up with anything but a bad excuse

[Verse 2: wishlane]
Well I think somebody's under my bed
A blown fuse corroding me out of my head
And god, how I'd love to keep playing pretend
But I let my whole damn life go to waste instead
And by now that's probably what you expect
I'll let you give me a bullet before I give myself respect
Escaping my own detection
I'm fiending for self rejection
Deciphering my own message
And siphoning things that I can't be

[Bridge: wishlane]
I just wanna love it all the same
I just wanna love it all the same
I just wanna love it all the same
I just wanna love it all the same

[Outro: Cole Calico]
I couldn't come up with anything but a bad excuse
I couldn't come up with anything but a bad excuse
