i remember when i first saw her
ripped jeans and a worn out blue shirt
a hide away up on the west coast
she was there, when the sun rose
saw her name escape my teeth
a breath of us with a worn out dream
Always smiling I can see her there
But couldn’t find it
i’m sorry zoey
i don’t know what I was thinking
she’s a ship that’s slowly sinking
starting her nights by drinking
she was chasing after
i heard he fucked you on his first try
tried saving face
never ever gets by
always done up to just be used
you couldn’t stand it
im sorry zoey
i don’t know what you were thinking
im a ship that’s slowly sinking
starting my days with drinking
i was chasing after
