lyrics

It was like the novelty of Ryan Gosling playing in an emo band,
and writing so cliche and tasteless, kids are still fucking pretentious,
and PS— I don't love you, and we are never ever getting back together,
Kylie, and I won't call you next time I'm in upstate.
Thought I might replay the night before I left and tape over it,
you in your red dress, in iridescence.

And we can pretend this song is about Rochester or Syracuse,
cause I got a parking ticket in Buffalo and I use it as an excuse
to not see you and to never call you
and to consciously avoid you.

It was like the novelty of Macaulay Culkin singing for a normcore band,
and kids in Warbey Parker glasses and cutoffs listen like cult masses
but shit gets old, and I got to know you like Next Fall, your voice would be going out of style,
and you make life like a black balloon, held down by impossibly tangled wires.

We can pretend this song is about wherever your parents are from
and bands you loved in high school, but wouldn't be caught dead mouthing the words now as it plays along.

I sort of started to get over you as soon as I got to know you.
I was just completely mistaken when I thought I might miss you.

Cause you were like the novelty of Brad Pitt screaming for a post-skramz hardcore band from Philly,
and everyone was really into it.
