Lyrics North - Better Half

North

I was always told that if you love someone
Then don’t worry 'cause they’ll stay
Despite the distance and the time away
But then she came, and everything changed
Now I rarely see your face and that’s okay
Sitting on the bathroom floor
I never realised before
That I can’t miss you if I forget you
Jack burns my throat
And along with it, all the memories of growing up
And I’m too afraid to think of being close to you
Now there’s nothing left to do
Except lay in my bed and cry about it
I always fucking cry about
Burden myself again, sober and poor, sober and poor
Burden myself again, drown me in this bath
Don’t want to be, don’t want to be here anymore
I always take my family for granted
If I could run then I would as fast as I can
Take my things and head north
Take my things and head north
I was so afraid to write it off
Although it’s clear we’re too far gone
I was so afraid to write it off
Although it’s clear we’re too far gone
You used me, you’re so shallow
She was wrong though
She was wrong though
You used me, you’re so shallow
She was wrong though
She was wrong
Don’t want to be, don’t want to be here anymore
I always take my family for granted
If I could run then I would as fast as I can
Take my things and head north
Take my things and head north
Don’t want to be, don’t want to be here
If I could run then I would as fast as I can
Take my things and head north
Take my things and head north
