Lyrics

I've got myself to blame for this
I've tried to compensate for everything I'm not
And every face forgotten
You felt the sun warming your bed
You looked so quintessential dressed against that cross
In the face of what was lost
Still I'm not asking much of me
And you're ignoring the matter..

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying
Thinking about you and i

Three years on friday since we met
You felt that existential kiss upon your neck
How could we forget that?
Still I'm through acting like this feels right
And that nothing else matters

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying
Thinking about you and i

(Yeah)
It's on yourself and no one else
But without hindsite
I guess it serves me right

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry
Cheap champagne and a disappearing lifeline
If nothing else matters
Then I will die trying
Thinking about you and i

Shut me up and bleed me dry
Its only a matter of time
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
It's only a matter of time
