Carpet Burn Lyrics by Bradley Simpson
[Verse 1]
You only cry when you're mad
Wake with the fear that you had said something bad
Told me how you lost your Dad
And you get scared you got the same damn demons in you
[Verse 2]
We’re lying counting the scars
"This one was carpet burn from fucking in my first car"
You hate that he broke your heart
And you've been single since the person who you lost it to
[Chorus]
I'll take every moment I get
But, it gets me down that I didn’t know you before we met
I'll take all the time we got left
But, it gеts me down that I didn't know you before wе met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you then
[Verse 3]
Flew there to spend the weekend (I flew there overnight)
You made a friend while I asked for another cigarette
He asked me "How long's it been?" (But I don't know myself)
I like the people here, I tell him while I'm staring at you
[Chorus]
Every moment I get
But, it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
I’ll take all the time we got left
But, it gets me down that I didn’t know you before we met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you
[Bridge]
When I needed to hold you
When you were petrified
I don’t think we were ready
To see it in this light
Would've blamed it on the timing
That it always would have been
What could have been
[Chorus]
I'll take every moment I get
But, it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
I’ll take all the time we got left
But, it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Yeah, it gets me down that I didn't know you before we met
Oh, it gets me down that I didn't know you then
