I Do And I Don't Lyrics

We started off by talking about the tattoos on her back.
And the bands that we both hate.
Anything to make the moment last.
Hoping you might spend the night
And watch our feelings collide.
It seems like summer's just a state of mind.

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart.
But you're not trying hard enough
So this can last forever.

Remember
Crashing parties just to get our drinks for free.
You would touch your skirt and tell me you had nothing on underneath.
But all these memories are burning me alive.
Knowing you and I might never get this right.
You said this promise wasn't fading through.
I suffocate myself to sleep
With one more night of silence next to...
You.

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart.
But you're not trying hard enough.
So this can last forever.
I'll give my best shot, holding onto what we got.
I need to tell her that I'm ready
Whether she's ready or not.

Ready or not, or not.
Well are you ready or not?
(Well are you ready or not?)

I'm ready...
I'm ready...

We've tried
To find
That all walls we built up...
Were fake.

Cause you're slipping away.
Like a car on ice,
We're spinning out of control.
Like an open wound,
We need some time to heal.
Like a cigarette,
her pleasure's worth the risk.
Like a crowded room,
my presence won't be missed.
She don't care.
And it's not fair.
That I can't forget you
Just knowing I let you out of my life.
But I'm moving on...
She's moving on.

Soon I'll be gone!
I'll be a million miles away.
I need to see you.
Need to touch you.
Like we used to mis believe.
And if your picture's worth a thousand words,
I cut open my vocal cords
For one more night of silence next to you.
Just to spend another night with you!

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart.
But you're not trying hard enough.
So this can last forever.
I'll give my best shot, holding onto what we got.
I need to tell her that I'm ready
Whether she's ready or not.

Well are you ready or not?
