Everybody's Baby from Young Volcanoes by Zac Clark

cut myself on guns and roses, drinking in the afternoon.
lost my mind and hoped you’d notice.
looked your way and thought i’d tell the truth:
i need to see you soon.

but you’re everybody’s baby now, aren’t you?

walked it off and poured it back on,
bumped up when i slid back down.
found myself in foreign rooms and houses.
we float like phantoms in this town;
i just hope you’ll come back around.

but you’re everybody’s baby now,
and i wish you were mine all of the time.
you’re everybody’s baby now, and i wish you were mine.

i do this all so often it’s like i’m seeing if my heart still beats.
try just as hard to get and forget.
knew you’d leave but hoped you’d stay with me.
one more drink and we’ll be sleeping on the street.

i see you in the strangest fucking places when i’m wasted.
you are every girl i meet and darling you’re taken.
