about

A cheerful song about an imaginary mid-summer divorce.

lyrics

I trickled back from work to a bar I'd never been to lined with floral summer dresses and t-shirts. Put an order in. Hoped the charge on my phone could hold a full night's worth of self-reflective questioning. Called you once or twice, but with a couple drinks I watched that number climb to three to four to five. It's Wednesday June the 6th and I drive home drunk and prepare myself for a 7am shift. And now you're bringing me to my knees again.

Let me fall through. I'll be where you want me to.

Now I don't turn my head when I pass the house that we used to call ours. You're probably in bed reading up on what's hot for the summer. Darling, we loved one another. Would you care to explain how the distance got so big? Cause memories retain the form and the shape, the curve and the weight; the hollow, haunted space where I now lay. So while you're scratching out my name from the coffee cups in the cabinet above the sink, do you ever think about letting the right one in again?

Let me fall through. I'll be where you want me to.

And now you're bringing me to my knees again. Soaking up my serotonin. Letting those waves of light begin. Scraping off all my skin.

Now I'm calling back up my confidence. Cursing our callow confluence. Guess I blocked out how hard it is letting the right one in.
