Franklin House

That sounds good I've got stories to tell, but no means to tell 'em I've got words to get out, but they'll send me to Hell I bet you're drunk at the Franklin Blowin' off all that grief that I gave you It's cold when you're here and it's cold when you're not It hit me like a bullet, but I took it 'cause I'm strong And I'm the closest to a man The man I never was And I'm drivin' home from the worst night alive Thanksgiving was like Hell, but I give thanks that I'm alive I don't care that I don't mean it, I don't care that I can't hide it Like I used to, what's the use to? I will survive, but I'll never recover The ache comes and goes like stars with the weather I'm stuck with the pains in the place of all the love I still have for you, I'm not mad at you (one, two, three) I thought I could change you for better All I did was break you forever You needed saving, and I couldn't save you this time All I did was break you forever I had reasons to run and reasons to fight Don't ask me why I stayed 'cause I couldn't tell you why I was hopeless, I was young, I was angry But I thought I was fine Now this place is empty, and if the walls could talk They would tell you how it is and tell you how it's not 'Cause I would never take the blame on all the things That I know were my fault I will survive, but I'll never recover Love in the balance will never be covered You don't owe me none, there's no debt to me, darlin' I promise you, I'm not mad at you Whoa, I'm not mad at you I thought I could change you for better All I did was break you forever You needed saving, but I could not save you this time All I did was break you forever I will survive, but I'll never recover (I will survive, but I'll never recover) I will get by, but I'll never get over (I will get by, but I'll never get over) I will survive, but I'll never recover
