lyrics

You can keep my sweater, you can bury my poems
Lying next to you never felt like home

Caught in the moment, can I still call you friend
You had me thinking Coldplay's a good band
I fell asleep with a piece of quartz in my hand
And it told me it wants to get back to the mountains

And my bad driving is making you nervous
You're kissing me like I don't deserve it

You can keep my sweater, you can bury my poems
Lying next to you never felt like home
Walking on train tracks, you said you want to be alone
And now I'm taking back my words, and all the miles that I drove

Another New Years watching the ball drop
Thinking of gravity and how everything falls
Your excuses really had me going
If he's a friend why does he sit so closely

Your excuses really had me going
If he's a friend why does he sit so closely
My bad driving is making you nervous
You're kissing me like I don't deserve it
Turn on the TV so we don't have to talk
A cartoon soundtrack as we fall apart
