Andy Nelson - Hustler's Heart lyrics

I woke up on the wrong side of the afternoon Disconcerting words danced around my head Did I say too much or not enough? Perspective depends on where you're standing I was lost when I learned how to shut it off Been tearing down walls since that day and still Like your favorite Futures song goes “I've always been the easy k**... guess I always will” And I was one step shy of that thinnest line Between folding my hand and laying all my cards on the table But I went all in and I let you win It was close enough to the real thing It was close enough to the real thing As far as I know I made my way to the living room Where we spent a lifetime in just a few nights Where I barely knew you But you were all promise on this side of paradise It was here that I threw my doubts against the walls In hopes that something I couldn't reach might fall into place I was one step shy of that thinnest line Between folding my hand and laying all my cards on the table But I let you in I let you in It was close enough to the real thing And I know it's true that I deserve to be set aside I just wanted you to know I tried to cross that window That opened up long ago Just when I caught sight of something beautiful on the other side It slammed shut on me And ever since then I've been distant, cold, and shaking I was one step shy of that thinnest line
