My Constant - I Hate Heroes

I remember black skies lit up by green-blue eyes

It was my first time the scars still ache sometimes

Thought I’d be stronger the longer I stayed away

I’m jaded I’m tempered by my old flames

It’s getting hard to believe that there were better days

When every night is spent a single drink from fading away

I wish the things she said were all the things she meant

It’s not my first time around and I can tell that she’s down

On her luck but it’s a battle just to get me to hear her

After all these years

She was my constant we never faltered

Before I woke up from that sweet dream starring her

It was her poison lips it was her shadow eyes

That pulled me down the road to never-ending compromise

So don’t you speak my name

You fooled me once now it’s never gonna happen again

Cause I know I’ll be something great

And I know that you’ll stay the same

I wish the things she said were all the things she meant

It’s not my first time around and I can tell that she’s down

On her luck but it’s a battle just to get me to hear her

After all these years

Another wrong move by the right girl

Makes another cold heart in a bitter world

So hold on if you know what you have is real

Cause god knows there are wounds that time can’t heal

Another wrong move by the right girl (So don’t you speak my name)

Makes another cold heart in a bitter world

So hold on if you know what you have is

real (Cause I know I’ll be something great)

Cause god knows there are wounds that time can’t heal

I wish the things she said were all the things she meant

It’s not my first time around and I can tell that she’s down

On her luck but it’s a battle just to get me to hear her

After all these years

You told me you need to find yourself

I told everyone I’m fine by myself

This is the way that it ends no matter how we try

So have the decency to say goodbye
