lyrics

Those brown eyes
I looked into them once
And I thought I saw love
But it's gone

Oh it left months ago
Or maybe it was never even there

I was too young to notice
And too numb to care
This love was a fantasy
A story we made up in our heads

Young rebels in love
Just trying to live
A fuckin shitshow of emotions
I think we were wrong

We were like mint toothpaste and orange juice, both good things you have in the morning but together they taste like shit. Did we taste like shit? I don't know, all I can do is move on. You say you don't remember the feelings. You say you were only in love with the feelings. But sometimes I have these days when all I can do is contemplate what I could've done better. Sometimes my mind wanders back to those warm summer days when we pretended we were free, when really we were both just in the prison of each other. The guards were comfort and fear of being alone and a longing to prove all of them wrong.

Well.

It was good for a little while.

I wonder if
You even thought about me
While you got drunk with him
Or was I

Only an afterthought
In your mind

Was it exciting?
Was it a dream?
Out under the night sky
Far away from me

Your arms around some other boy
Take a sip of jack
Fall under the spell and
You're never coming back
