"Franklin House" lyrics

Sounds good

I've got stories to tell, but no means to tell 'em
I've got words to get out, but they'll send me to Hell
I bet you're drunk at the Franklin, blowin' off all that grief that I gave you
It's cold when you're here and it's cold when you're not
It hit me like a bullet, but I took it 'cause I'm strong
And I'm the closest to the man, the man I never was
And I'm drivin' home from the worst night alive
Thanksgiving was like Hell, but I give thanks that I'm alive
I don't care that I don't mean it
I don't care that I can't hide it like I used to
What's the use to?

I will survive, but I'll never recover
The ache comes and goes like scars with the weather
I'm stuck with the pains in the place of all the love I still have for you
I'm not mad at you (One, two, three)

I thought I could change you for better
All I did was break you forever
You needed saving, and I couldn't save you this time
All I did was break you forever

I had reasons to run and reasons to fight
Don't ask me why I stayed 'cause I couldn't tell you why
I was hopeless, I was young, I was angry, but I thought I was fine
Now this place is empty, and if the walls could talk
They would tell you how it is and tell you how it's not
'Cause I would never take the blame on all the things that I know were my fault

I will survive, but I'll never recover
Love in the balance will never be covered
You don't owe me none, there's no debt to me, darling
I promise you, I'm not mad at you
Woah, I'm not mad at you

I thought I could change you for better
All I did was break you forever
You needed saving, but I could not save you this time
All I did was break you forever

I will survive, but I'll never recover (I will survive, but I'll never recover)
I will get by, but I'll never get over (I will get by, but I'll never get over)
I will survive, but I'll never recover
