Chapter Eighty - Still Hurting
BLAINE
Vintage tee, brand new phone
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
Sequin smile, black lipstick
Sensual politics
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Dancing in your Levi's
Drunk under a streetlight, I
I knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt
Baby kiss it better, right
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favourite
A friend to all is a friend to none
Chase two girls, lose the one
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Playing hide-and-seek and
Giving me your weekends
I, I knew you
Your heartbeat on the High Line
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favourite
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleeding
'Cause I knew you
Stepping on the last train
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy
I, I knew you
Leaving like a father
Running like water, I
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
Chasing shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be standing in my front porch light
And I knew you'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
And you'd come back to me
And you'd come back
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favouriteBlaine sat on the edge of his bed, strumming his guitar as he softly sang the lyrics. Sebastian had managed to capture the meerkat and was taking it to some animal rescue centre place in Colombus, and would be out all afternoon. He would have gone with him, but he needed to be back at McKinley soon.
A part of him didn't want to go, feeling so much more content singing by himself with a guitar. He hadn't of done this in so long, a sense of guilt overcoming him that he hadn't yet even wrote one song for his album. He thought about using Not Alone, though it felt wrong. It was as much of Poppy's song as it was his own.
