Ethan Gruska
BUZZER BEATER
Tried to hit a buzzer beater
Before the clock ran out
A desperation shot to see if this could work somehow
There’s no packed arena standing up or cheering loud
It’s just me and all the ways I’m ready for you now

It’s a Hail Mary
I’ll bet it all
That you don’t want to see me now
But I’ll take my shot in the dark for you

We tried to give ourselves a breather
So I moved out of town
Seems like you’re a non believer
In what I’m doing now
I didn’t mean to leave you with a bad taste in your mouth
I thought that you’d be better off if I wasn’t around

That’s a Hail Mary
I’d bet it all
If you could just see me now
You’d know that it’s just as hard for me
Do you believe me

Think I must be dreaming
At least just wishful thinking
It just might all work out
As the crowd goes wild
Didn’t get a chance to see you
And I just don’t feel right
But I know it’s not my say if you don’t think it’s time
I keep coming back to what you said to me that night
You can’t just pick and choose to be a part of someone’s life

It’s a Hail Mary
I’ll bet it all
That you don’t want to see me now
But I’ll take my shot in the dark
