Lyrics The One That Gets Away - Bury the Wren

The One That Gets Away

I only know two things
But only one of them’s true
First, I candid with ya
Second, I can shoot you
A body ever made
A blood tempt to rise
Pacin' back and forth like
This is the lesson
So I clean my gun
On this velvet couch
We want cigarette holes and
I can even count
And then I listen to the clock go
(Tick tack tock, tick tack)
And the door creak slowly open
Like you’re hopin'
Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don’t make it worst
Love in reverse
I don’t want to pull your mind
Even so end me, I’m
The one that gets away
I know I don’t get much
At least I brought it home
You’re too generous to it
The number of your phone
And now you’re out on night light
(Tick tock tick)
And you don’t come home
And the door creak slowly open
Like you’re hopin'
Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don’t make it worst
Love in reverse
I don’t want to pull your mind
Even so end me, I’m
The one that gets away
And the door creak slowly open
Like you’re hopin'
Now you’re out on night light
(Tick tock tick, tick tock tick)
And you don’t come home
And the door creak slowly open
Like you’re hopin'
So I clean my gun
On this velvet couch
(Tick tack tock, tick)
Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don’t make it worst
Love in reverse
I don’t want to pull your mind
Even so end me, I’m
The one that gets away
