Cheap Cologne

I get too attached to trust in a better us
In a flash, we lost all that we had
I feel guilty everytime we laugh
Cause I couldn't see behind your mask

Could it be the timing or the wrong place
Getting sick of hearing you say always
Show a little effort and that's all it takes

How could love feel safe with a seed of doubt?
All the nights I prayed you would be around
No, please don't go

Say that it was never your fault, who was keeping count?
Guess that I thought it would even out
Now I know we'd never last, like cheap cologne
Last, like cheap cologne
Last, like cheap cologne

Word to my preacher, I dig a little deeper
Cause sometimes what's real
Don't always show on the surface
Don't matter how I treat her
You see it in her demeanor
Like how we call it love
If we gon' end it all on purpose

Could it be the timing or the wrong place
Getting sick of hearing you say always
Show a little effort and that's all it takes

How could love feel safe with a seed of doubt?
All the nights I prayed you would be around
No, please don't go

Say that it was never your fault, who was keeping count?
Guess that I thought it would even out
Now I know we'd never last, like cheap cologne
Last, like cheap cologne
Last, like cheap cologne
