Lyrics

We were in a cab on the way to your house And I could taste the booze when you kissed my mouth You were slurring your words when those three came out But it still sounded sweet somehow You can't remember and I canโ€™t forget Remember the night you were so fucked up Fell on your face and busted one eye up You told a story about a boxing glove And you're the Hemingway hero A black-eyed James Dean in a one-man show You can't remember and I canโ€™t forget You get the glory and I get the mess You play the good guy and I'm the fool, I guess You can't remember and I can't forget That empty bottle of pills 'cause you took 'em all I was scrolling like hell to find a friend to call Crying on the front lawn in the flashing lights I still see you on that stretcher in the back of my mind And you can't remember and I can't forget You get the pity and Iโ€™m just a wreck I live with the memories, you get to push reset You canโ€™t remember and I can't forget But I remember that 911 call And picking you up from jail still drunk Too many nights just watching you breathe You arenโ€™t just killing yourself, now you're killing me Remember tonight when I told the truth That just like these drugs, I'm bad for you 'Cause if I stay, youโ€™ll never ask for help But if I go, you might save yourself So I pray like hell that you'll save yourself You can't remember and I can't forget You can't remember and I can't forget But this is me loving you well before the first time, I guess And you can't remember, I can't forget You can't remember and I can't forget
