Coral Baby

[Verse 1]
My love
You've got such a stubborn way
Of keeping me alive
Talking to my god
Bargaining a price for my foolish heart
My love
I've seen the way you sweat
It pulls you from your bed
The chaos in your head
Racing out the door for a cigarette

[Pre-Chorus]
And if I was a better man
I would keep all your secrets
Maybe listen for a change

[Chorus]
Tell me how do you do it baby
I'm so surprised
Walking in your footsteps
Oh, I can only try
Tell me how do you do it baby
I'm drowning fast
Drifting to your future
And I'm stuck in the past
Again

[Verse 2]
My love
You've seen the way I work
Isolate myself
When talking gets too loud
And break my own heart just to make it out
My love
I'm not on the other side
I'm staring down the dark
Waiting for your call
Just to let me know when it's safe to run

[Pre-Chorus]
And if I was a better man
I would know how to deal with
All the pain that breaks my hand

[Chorus]
Tell me how do you do it baby
I'm so surprised
Walking in your footsteps
Oh, I can only try
Tell me how do you do it baby
I'm drowning fast
Drifting to your future
And I'm stuck in the past
Again
