i tried to leave some lipstick stains
all over the 4x6 prints you got just the other day
but all that's left is a little red
and the memory that i did that once
you know that i'm terrible at goodbye
you know that i'm terrible at saying what i'm feeling
but i've gotta get this off my mind
it just seems like sometimes
you just say these things to try to hurt my feelings
so please don't take this personally
but i have come to realize
that i'm just like all the others
who've wandered in and wasted all yr time

*cigarette mementos on your porch
act like you don't need them anymore
i think you might miss them the same way they miss you (too)
every year i still get older
every part of me will get colder
i hope that you know that i'm trying to feel the same things i used to
but life moves too fast/i'm always moving too fast
and i have such a hard time looking back
*
every single time i call you
it goes directly to voicemail
i hope that you know that i'm just trying to see if you're doing alright
but i don't know if you care
or if you're even listening
i'm sorry! it's late! i just wanna know if you're alright!
took some time to figure out
all the things that made you proud
i'll think of that summer all the time
*
(i don't know if you still care or if you're trying not to feel it anymore.
please don't go. i'm trying to make things right by you)

you said yr autumn was almost perfect
an idealistic summer
you made a whole bunch of brand new friends
some of them you decided to live with
moved out of that old apartment
a party at cook douglass
you made quick eyes with someone
but that was like a year ago
you've been talking on and off for a while now
you said you could do without
but darling i know you
i slept on your couch that night
i overheard that guy you like and that girl from 14E
getting busy on your kitchen floor
and i overheard something more
i know i can't be positive
but i heard you cry yourself to sleep
the same night danny fell in love with sandy on your kitchen floor

sentimental things

pulling up to another college town house
sipping on whatever there's a case of
sitting silent in the third row
head against the window
dreaming of a person i used to know
one day i'll get bored of this haircut
maybe soon i'll never want to be in a band
my dad said "it's fun right now but it will kill you one day"
they used to do haircuts in their driveway
i got a sideshave in their bathroom
there were so many people talking
but no matter where we were, i could always hear them fine
we'd always kiss softly because we'd always start coughing
i think it's funny but it's telling
that i could never commit to anything that long
of course sometimes i get lonely
sometimes i'll wear the socks they gave me
sometimes i'll feel dumb sentimental things
about things they left behind (like)
a torn up sweater
a copy of the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
these things shouldn't mean a god damn thing to me
but whenever i get lonely
whenever i wear the socks they gave me
whenever it starts snowing for the first time
i'll feel the same things that i felt when i was 16
the future's inconsequential
and i can still feel emotional
i wish we never kissed that night
because i think in time we could have been best friends
but now we'll never know

i'm at the greyhound in albany
trying to find words to change yr mind
but i write the same three things down every time
it's like my life's on repeat
it's like some boring tv
it's why you cancelled cable
it's probably why you gave up on me too
*is that why you got that tattoo?
is it really that hard to stay close to you?
is it really why you got that tattoo?
is it really that hard to stay this close to you?
i'm at a rest stop somewhere outside of platekill
and i can't change yr mind
i'll write the same three things down for the hundreth time
and i'll continue down the road
blast defiance ohio, act like you don't think about them anymore
blast defiance ohio, you can cry if you want to, just don't let them know
blast defiance ohio, you can cry if you want to, just don't let them know
blast defiance ohio, cry in front of yr friends, you can let them know
