lyrics

I thought I was coming off effortless. Everyone can see me sweating.
I can act as normal as any former lover at a wedding.

I thought I was coming off clever, but you were on a whole other level
I know someday I’ll be a better man. until then, please put up with me the best you can.

I never meant to leave you
I never meant to leave you alone.
I always want to listen, even when my face is buried in my phone.
Flesh is soft, but you are not.

I thought that came off intelligent, but imposter syndrome seemed relevant.
I am feeling weak just like anybody else putting feelings out on the street.

I am aware.
I am aware I’m putting fresh air on dirty laundry I should probably just clean.
