lyrics

I met you between floors 3 and 4
in a stairwell purging numbers from your phone.
I asked about the things you knew about
and you took me by the hand and walked me out.

And my lips turned red at the things you said
and for weeks on end you’d guest star in my bed.

I was made a stone for stepping
cause I kept my head above water
and I kept you warm and dry until you found another lover.

Whoa.

I saw you on campus heading east
to a straight line where the sky and water meet.
And you left me all alone, to find my own way home
and I wondered why you couldn’t let me be.

And my lips turned blue at the sight of you
cause my heart just knew you’d always be untrue.

And my lips turned blue at the sight of you
cause I always knew you’d tear my heart in two.
