Lyrics of Heartfelt lies

I walk by the rivers edge
Skipping smooth wet stones
And watching them sink

I never was a fan of innocence
I've got two black eyes
And an empty fifth of gin

And i see i'm wrong for you
But we try
You swear i'm hard
To lay beside
If i was you i'd run
From me most nights
Maybe i was meant
To be left behind

Thundering circumstances
Beyond our control rumble in
Counting time by the lines
'round your eyes
As your gentle caress
Helps me forget

And i think it's time
To say good night
And you swear i'm hard
To lay beside
Now years seem to pass
As we blink our eyes
Maybe i was meant
To be left behind

But all of our heartfelt lies
All of our heartfelt lies
All of our heartfelt lies
They're not enough this time

And i say i'd love
To spend the night
But you found someone else
To lay beside
And i know it makes sense
But it's like sand in my eyes
Maybe i was meant
To be left behind
