Текст песни I Do and I Don't - ICE NINE KILLS

We started off by talkin' about the tattoos on her back
And the bands that we both hate, anything to make the moment last
Hoping you might spend the night and watch our feelings collide
It seems like summer's just a state of mind

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart
But you're not trying hard enough, so this can't last forever

Do you remember crashing parties just to get our drinks for free?
You would touch your skirt and tell me you had nothing on underneath
But all these memories are burning me alive
Knowing you and I might never get this right
(I do know this, but I have to try)

And if this promise was a fading dream
I'd suffocate myself to sleep
For one more night of silence next to you

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart
But you're not trying hard enough, so this can't last forever
I'll give my best shot, holding on to what we've got
I need to tell her that I'm ready, whether she's ready or not

Are you ready or not?
Well, are you ready or not?
Well, are you ready or not?
I'm ready, I'm ready now

We tried too hard, that or the walls we built up we're fake
'Cause your slipping away
Like a car on ice, we're spinning out of control
Like an open wound, we need some time to heal
Like a cigarette, her pleasure's worth the risk
Like a crowded room, my presence won't be missed

And she don't care, and it's not fair that I can't forget you
Just knowing I've let you run out of my life
But I'm moving on, well, she's moving on
Soon, I'll be gone, and you'll be a million miles away
I need to see you, need to touch you
Like we used to misbehave

And if your picture's worth a thousand words (whoa)
I'd cut open my vocal cords (whoa)
For one more night in silence next to you
Just to spend another night with you

You say all these words and make all these promises
But I need to know, can we really make this last forever?

I'm gonna make sure we never fall apart
But you're not trying hard enough, so this can't last forever (we'll make this last)
I'll give my best shot, holding on to what we've got
I need to tell her that I'm ready, whether she's ready or not (oh)

I'm gone
Well, are you ready or not?
Tell her I'm ready
