secondguess

With a meantime, meanwhile, clear-cut conscience
Let the paraffin prop me up
Take a couple more swings, hope I get it all wrong
'cause permanent never seems permanent enough

I wash from beige to blue
I was never that lost, just afraid to lose
Lacquer my luck so pale to prove
This heart don't break the way it used to

Give me that strong stuff
Who says anything lasts that long?
Like a secondhand head rush
I miss that saw-cut way that it was
With everything honest
That kerosene shine, that acetone touch
And I don't mind my colors might run
I've had enough half-strength second-guess love

None of it ever feels permanent enough

I'm a paradise plastic slight spitting image
But everything lasts just as long as it did
In a year spent white-knuckle waiting at the finish
I finally understand, just another couple minutes

You can watch me wash from beige to blue
I was never that lost, just afraid to lose
Lacquer my luck so pale to prove
This heart don't break the way it used to

Give me that strong stuff
Who says anything lasts that long?
Like a secondhand head rush
I miss that saw-cut way that it was
With everything honest
That kerosene shine, that acetone touch
And I don't mind my colors might run
I've had enough half-strength second-guess love

I don't care I'm coming undone
Who says anything ever lasts that long?
I don't mind my colors might run
I've had enough half-strength second guess love
I don't care I'm coming undone
Who says anything ever lasts that long?
I don't mind
I don't mind
