For Someone Else’s Sake

Thank you for being quick
'Cause if I had one more tequila, you'd be gone and I'd be sick
Shouldn't I just go to sleep?
But there's a place in Ocean
Beach where we could get our drinks for cheap

The neon stings like a cut
But it's quiet 'cause the jukebox only sings when I get up
When you walked in
I felt the cold
If your lips were made for moving, then my hand was meant to hold

Now we're skipping down the road by sunshine
Ain't it funny how it always smells like?
A bunch of weed that I never buy
I guess, I never wanna be that high
Drunk standing in the parking lot
So I can see if I can drive or not
Guess we got a little time to kill
I really shouldn't, but I guess I will

You are a great parade
Shouting curses at the very worst, you're sharp and unashamed
I am a faulty flame
That you used to light a fire neither him or I could tame

And we've spent the last few years
Turning nothing into magic learning how to disappear
But I've made a decent home
So, if your bed was made for fucking
Then I'd rather sleep alone

If someone hurts every time they're with you
You get to thinking, maybe, you're the issue
I'm giving up for someone else's sake
'Cause I would never wanna be that way
Make your peace about her being gone
Take your time and sing a bad love song
And in the morning when I'm feeling blue
I take my medicine and dream of
You don't care
If I'm not there
And our hearts bleed on
This ain't your song

You don't care
If I'm not there
And our hearts bleed on
This ain't your song

(There was someone, there was something, there was laughter)
(It wasn't you, it wasn't me that you were after)
(Funny how you're gone, funny how you changed, funny we were there)
(Honey, it was you, honey, it was me, funny)
(I don't care)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
