Resentment Lyrics

We went out drinking in some suburban crowded place
I said “I’m feeling real good tonight; it’s time to make some mistakes”
The only words I’m confident in, I live to regret
And they say true love is dead, but I haven’t finished killing it yet

It might be my fault
For not knowing how to talk to you
Without advice from my friends

But I wanna come back to this
I don’t wanna fade into resentment
The back of the mind is not a nourishing place to live

Ran into you on my way out the door, we both hadn’t slept
A mile a minute we thought through the options for moves we had left
But I never figured it out, just spent a while living in doubt
But maybe I’m better off without any peace of mind

It might be my fault
For not knowing how to look at you
Without this sinking feeling
That I locked my keys in a house on fire

But I wanna come back to this
I don’t wanna fade into resentment
The back of the mind is not a nourishing place to live
And something happened but we fractured it
And I don’t know how to prevent it
The rest of the time in the world’s not a generous gift to give
I’m feeling like a balloon untied deflating in space
In other words, I’m feeling real bad tonight, it’s time to make some mistakes

It might be my fault
For not wanting to remember you
Cause all I see when I see your eyes
Is the barrel of a gun
And it might be my fault
For not knowing how to talk to you
Without advice from
Vodka, whisky, and several shots of rum

But I wanna come back to this
I don’t wanna fade into resentment
The back of the mind is not a nourishing place to live
And something happened but we fractured it
And I don’t know how to prevent it
The rest of the time in the world’s not a generous gift to give
And I just wanna live
I just wanna live
I just wanna live
I just wanna live

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
