Look at the back of my hand and I see a new scar
So I sit back and wonder how it got there in the first place
Remember last night popped a string on my guitar
So I suppose that could be the case
But it's got me messed up anyways
When I said I
Know you like I know the back of my hand
Guess I don't know like I say that I do
There's a million reasons why we both had to end
With her now and I can't tell the truth
That she smiles like you did
And laughs with the same old grin
So sometimes I close my eyes and I'm back where I've been
And my style hasn't really changed
Cuz she loves when I dress this way
It's like sugar and salt yeah it all looks the same
But I can't replicate the taste
Look at the back of my heart and the walls are so thin
And the sad part is she's give me hers just to fix it
And I know that I lost but with her I just wouldn't win
Been in second place before
But this stalemate is worse for sure
When I told you
My heart was broken
Remember you said
You'd break yours if it would patch up mine
And the truth is the pieces just don't quite fit in
But I'm selfish so turn down the lights
And smile just like she did
And laugh with the same old grin
So tonight I can close my eyes and be back where I've been
And she'd never ask for change
But I still think about your face
It's like sugar and salt yeah it all looks the same
But I can't replicate the taste
