Tennis Court Oath
My therapist says it was a self-fulfilling prophecy
Cause I kissed the girl you thought I was cheating on you with, like weeks after you dumped me
But it wasn't serious, casual as anything
Just a power trip before she left for the military
I knew she was using me, but I let her
Cause I needed it, more than I knew I did when it happened
More melodrama to get my head wrapped up in
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time
To take a step back and realize what else I could do
Just be honest with me Brittany
Am I the one or are you just playing with the power that we both know you have?
Because three whole years of no contact
And a sudden affinity for lip contact leaves me thinking there was something unsaid
So tonight, I'll sleep in my khakis and act like I know what "self-care" means
Cause honestly, I'm just too exhausted to live any healthier than this
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time
To take a step back and realize what else I could do
And I hope every song that you heard cause of me
Now strikes a bad chord in your self-esteem
You knew when we met what I'd take if you left
Your provincial knowledge and my sanity
Cause I kissed the girl you thought I was cheating on you with, like weeks after you dumped me
But it wasn't serious, casual as anything
Just a power trip before she left for the military
I knew she was using me, but I let her
Cause I needed it, more than I knew I did when it happened
More melodrama to get my head wrapped up in
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time
To take a step back and realize what else I could do
Just be honest with me Brittany
Am I the one or are you just playing with the power that we both know you have?
Because three whole years of no contact
And a sudden affinity for lip contact leaves me thinking there was something unsaid
So tonight, I'll sleep in my khakis and act like I know what "self-care" means
Cause honestly, I'm just too exhausted to live any healthier than this
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time
To take a step back and realize what else I could do
And I hope every song that you heard cause of me
Now strikes a bad chord in your self-esteem
You knew when we met what I'd take if you left
Your provincial knowledge and my sanity
