Small Talk

You don't look the same
When you're not apart of my life anymore
What is the point of saying goodbye
I know we'll fall
Over again
Almost as you planned it
Never thought it'd happen
But it did
I'm just so observant of your perfect
Not so perfect little life
A consequence
And you pay the price for the thrill

I'm thinking maybe that's just all you wanted
All you thought you ever could've gotten
Know that it's not true
It's all wrong
It's alright
And all feelings aside
You should know that I wonder

Yeah would it kill you to
Turn out the lights when you go
I'm not scared of the night till you're home
And you can bang on the door till you're cold
As if there's any other reason to know

Pick me up when I am bleeding
Clean the wounds that I've been mending
Losing ships that I've been steering
No I can't see the end

And that's why
I take it a day
At a week
At a month
At a year at a time
Thinking that I don't need anything more than the front door
I'm out of it
And I'll take what I want with me like
A bold opportunity
And a sense of community
On my way to what I wanna be baby
Better to have and not need than need and not have
