John Paciga - Ifs, Ands, and Buts Lyrics

Days grow colder, scars grow older
Yet the past is resurrecting
Feel the pull, the night is full of
Creatures that you've been deflecting
But there's always a catch
And there's always your wretched reasons not to play
Why can't you get of your own way?
Why can't you say what you want to say?
Why do you have to explain your emotions away?
Forcing myself to be your standby
Doing my best to be that guy
But I don't know why I even try
'Cause your ifs, ands, and buts get the best of you every time
Want to save me? Will you brave me?
I won't leave you hesitating
Just us two, just me and you
We've spent too much time ruminating
But there's always a catch
And there's always your wretched reasons not to play
Why can't you get of your own way?
Why can't you say what you want to say?
Why do you have to explain your emotions away?
Forcing myself to be your standby
Doing my best to be that guy
But I don't know why I even try
'Cause your ifs, ands, and buts get the best of you every time
I've been waiting here to be your remedy
But I'm done fading here I'm sick of your apologies
Don't come spying when you're racked by jealousy
And don't come crying when you crave my ecstasy
Oh, you have no alibi
Oh, you have no alibi
Oh, why can't you get of your own way?
Why can't you say what you want to say?
Why do you have to explain your emotions away?
Forcing myself to be your standby
Doing my best to be that guy
But I don't know why I even try
'Cause your ifs, ands, and buts get the best of you every time
'Cause your ifs, ands, and buts get the best of you every time
Oh, you have no alibi
