Last Living Lost Cause

I was all eyes
Tits and teeth
Pouring coconut rum over plastic palm trees
Said it was all right kissing me
But all I get is what you want me to see

You spun your car keys 'round your ring finger
And said someday I'll see the big picture

You're the last living lost cause
Legend outlaw
And I'm counting the seconds till I get the call
Or you get the message
Hurting yourself isn't ever gonna teach anybody a lesson
I hope you know you deserve
To be the person I thought you were

It was a one night thing for me
Dipping my toe into your dream
Time flew by, days and weeks
Closing down bars and squinting to see

You run in circles, spend the day dizzy
Making enemies just to stay busy

You're the last living lost cause
Legend outlaw
And I'm counting the seconds till I get the call
Or you get the message
Hurting yourself isn't ever gonna teach anybody a lesson
I hope you know you deserve
To be the person I thought you were

You're easy to love (love)
Hard to believe
When you show me the man
I want you to be

I have known (known)
Happy geniuses
Maybe nothing matters
But maybe nothing's meaningless

Go ahead, keep kicking that can down the road
I wish you didn't have to do it alone

You're the last living lost cause
Legend outlaw
And I'm counting the seconds till I get the call
Or you get the message
Hurting yourself isn't ever gonna teach anybody a lesson
I hope you know you deserve
To be the person I thought you were
