Jacob Fultz - Perfect Crime Lyrics

I've wore this ring for a long time
It ain't ever got me down
I've wore this ring for a long time
But I've still somehow managed to get around
Sometimes I wake up late at night and I regret my decision
Cuz the girl laying next to me in this bed ain't the one that I've been missing
Met the first at 14 back when we were kids that didn't understand
Met the other in the middle of my wild phase, at the time she was a friend of a friend
Now it seems I know her as good, if not better, than I do the first
And I just can't bring myself to decide which one I want the worst

It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with
It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up another fifth
It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life
But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime

There's days I wake up and kick myself for wondering where you are
People always told me that heartbreak's never easy, but goddamn they never said it'd be this hard
And I'm starting to doubt I'll be able to make it through
If I have to go through this story book fairytale they call life without you

It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with
It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up another fifth
It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life
But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime

Now there's wedding bells ringing in the summer time
And I just can't get her off my mind
And there's no one around to help me escape this time

It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with
It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up one more fifth
It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life
But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime
