lyrics

Things I know about you: you're colorblind and you love your parents
but you don't talk that often, and you get shy all the time.
And you lost your contacts on purpose last week cause
you got tired of drying out your eyes.
And you like dinosaurs more than you like people or dogs.
And you've developed voices for all your friends’ inner monologues.
And the first two vinyl you ever bought were both Frank Sinatra.
and your favorite color is red, and you were a scene kid in high school.

And I'm not sure what it is that keeps you happy on a day-to-day basis.
You are always smiling, just straight laughing to yourself
about something you just thought of that happened late last week.
And I'm not sure what you were thinking of doing before your bus ride home,
but your stop is sort of on my way and you're in my head, nearing perfect,
and if ever I make you blush from talking too much, it’s just cause you deserve it.

Things I like about you: you're sort of a mess inside.
and how you push your tongue to the roof of your mouth every time that you get high.
And you have the most leather jackets but none of them are leather.
And it might be a total constructed facade but it feels like you've got shit together.
And that I like you is such an understatement that it feels like a lie.

And I'm not sure what it is that makes you want to keep hanging out with me,
and listen through frenetic monologues until I stop cause forgetting breathing,
it's not charm, it’s dissociative and it won’t go away.
And I'm not sure what you were like the last few months of this past year
but I was a completely different person with completely different priorities,
but I still misuse love and fall in heavy, too quickly.

It’s just you make this feel like a movie, quite cliche, and everything happened all at once.
