Kristine From The 7th Grade (Live)

[Verse 1]
Are you the same Kristine
I knew from seventh grade?
Oh, it's definitely you
Just with a new last name
Someone who laughed a lot
Is what I remember the most
But the face in your profile
Suggests maybe not so much anymore
Yeah, I got the emails
These last two years every day
And I just don't reply because
I'm not really sure what to say

[Chorus]
Kristine
From the seventh grade

[Verse 2]
The anger, the all-caps
And all the pseudoscience
The misspellings, they must be on purpose
We went to a good school, Kristine
So what would you imagine I might
Take from this deluge of memes?
With the cryptic, dark Bible quotes
Guns and dead fetuses
Seriously, Kristine, are you okay?
'Cause this world can be
Wonderful too
Do you ever see it that way?

[Chorus]
Kristine?
Mm, from the seventh grade

[Verse 3]
There's a break in the rain
A perfect time for a walk
The smell of wet leaves, the warm smiles and hellos
These things exist in the real world, you know
Oh, what a shame, Kristine
This disease that makes strangers of friends
But if these days, it's really "uses" and "thems"
Then maybe you should just take me off both of those lists
'Cause it's such a short and sad and beautiful life
Do you ever see it that way?

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Thank you
