Cheap
Verse
I light another cigarette and think about today
It’s hard to try, to forget the things I heard you say
I watch the coal’s persistent glow and try to clear my head
Submerged in the insistent flow of everything you said
Pre-chorus
You were right, I would fall – trying to hold on
You take flight, I stand small – left here all alone
Chorus
You were always better at justification – you were always brighter than my imagination
You were always more than I could afford
Verse
I pour myself another drink to drown all my sorrow
I try my best not to think – not to wonder of tomorrow
I stare into the empty glass trying to ignore
Everything that’s come to pass and what will be no more
Pre-chorus
I was wrong, looking back – I was never whole
You stay strong, right on track – you never lost your soul
Chorus
Try to make the best of this sad situation
It’s hard to face my latest revelation
You were always more than I could afford
