We dated for like a month when I was sixteen
Most of our conversations took place on a screen
And I convinced myself I was living a dream
Felt the springtime air,
living without a care
In all black clothes and my bright blue hair
You came here on a Wednesday,
we went to a cafe.
I never let that coincidence go
Sat by a sign that said change alley
Later saw the trash,
re-named it death-valley
When I saw the song your wrote about me
I laughed about it with my friends
and i never felt any need
to try and make amends
Thought it was so cool you put it on streaming
so i made my way to dreaming
after another little mishap my thoughts went back to you
i got to writing, then i did it too
ink ran on paper, titled it "tear me apart"
about how one by one, it all broke my heart
one by one, went to beat your monthly listeners
thought "this should make it feel like a win for sure"
And then i hit my goal, i got 20
but now these days, you get plenty
Said you were disappointed I didn't like the same music as you
Said "I say I love you but I don't think I do"
I did what you asked when the nighttime came
When I thought you were different but you're just the same
Now you're finding yourself and sure that's great
But now it's kind of a pity,
to hear you're playing a show in my city.
