Good Time, Good Story

Open mic in my mind, you're tapping out a rhythm
My mother always said, he wouldn't know what hit him

With my twist of phrase and corners raised
I look up, you're still gazing at me
Like they always do
Before the scene is cut, I watch them walk
Away like I was barricaded
A party trick run through

There's always clouds held over my head
The lightning chapters of my hallowed regrets
Sunshine's stuck in your eyes
Your honey voice is daring me to demise
But am I a good time or just a good story?

Lost stars sat on your floor, you whisper I'm fascinating
Parts you've touched cover up the heart of me that's aching

To have something more than petty scores
I look up, you're still pouring for me
Champagne just to spill
Over talking through the midnight blues
And you don't seem to waver, how long
Will that last until?

There's always clouds held over my head
The lightning chapters of my hallowed regrets
Sunshine's stuck in your eyes
Your honey voice is daring me to demise
But am I a good time or just a good story?

I've always been afraid
To love and watch the meaning fade
Wouldn't know what it takes
If you kissed me and you asked to stay
Oh I could give you tales so good to tell
The fire sign who got away
But I want more than to fade as just a good story

There's always clouds held over my head
The lightning chapters of my hallowed regrets
Sunshine's stuck in your eyes
Your honey voice is daring me to demise
But am I a good time or just a good story?
