Adamant

125 Protestants in a burnt-down mall
They're saying, adamant
"I've tried to get better,"
She swears a thousand times
It doesn't need to be complicated
I wanna say: "I'm glad you've made it
Simple for yourself,"
Is it comfortable on her shelf?
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't

My personality is not a disease but I'll try and get better
The crunching of the autumn leaves and the threads of your sweater
Help me remember
The truck of city engineers watch us
Setting off cherry bombs down by the river
Never gets better but I hope you will

I'm committal to a fault but the crack is thinning every year
Give me an inch—I'll tell you exactly what you wanted to hear
We get farther from ourselves but know that
I'm on your side, baby
Let's do regicide or go grab a beer

Why can't we talk louder?
Speak with your chest and let it out
Brand new founding father
Tear me to shreds, we can work it out
I found a letter in my coat addressed to you
