Heartbreak summer jam.

lyrics

Sweetest Innocent

If you had turned the page on all the ways he broke your heart
Then would we still be falling for each other like the start
Waiting by my window on a Sunday afternoon
Drive five hours to Akron for one evening out with you

What could I do
Your love was
Sweetest innocent impending doom

If I blame myself my thoughts are focused and controlled
I must have been too codependent with you on the phone
Did he show up unannounced and beg to take you back
And in that moment you and I had crumbled into ash

What could I do
Your love was
Sweetest innocent impending doom

There's the right to never speak your thoughts
The right to call it off
The bitter pill is I was still not someone you could trust
Choking down the medicine that you and I are through
Brace myself for landing when you find somebody new

What could I do
Your love was
Sweetest innocent impending doom
