lyrics

I hope you get help that you get what you need
But I'm just a thief taken by greed
Baby dust off your knees and wipe off my shoes
'Cause you can't hold your own, but you like to be used

By the stains on your teeth and the lies in your past
I see you swallow with ease it's the same as the last
A call in the dark but it's plain to see
It's a pen and a sheet, and he's better than me

21 grams I follow for
21 I'm chasing
21 grams I follow for
And your dead end is calling me

I remember a time when my eyes seemed to see
Words written of love, ones you said to me
Say darling do tell do your fingertips burn?
From writing such lies and refusing to learn

Do your ears smell of smoke from the words on your back?
Do the letters I hold seal even a crack
Of the heartbreak you left and the void in my chest?
Guess you sure showed me, got me good for the rest

21 grams I follow for
21 I'm chasing
21 grams I follow for
And your dead end is calling
21 grams I follow for
21 I'm chasing
21 grams I follow for
And your dead end is calling me
