Get Well Soon xoxo

She seems to know
Her rights and wrongs
Better than me
She seems to know
Her place in this world
And where she's meant to be

I'd like to see if she gets there
I've got a feeling she's gonna get there

I don't remember that first night when we met
But I still have the selfie documenting that event
I can't remember how we first got to talking
But I was quick to fall for you, no one here finds it shocking

We talked the night away drinking watermelon kolsches
Then you drove me around the town
Showing me all of your previous porches
We stopped for noodles so I could meet your new boyfriend
I remember thinking and hoping that you'd soon buck this short trend

But it's two years later
And you're still telling me how he's been pithy
I was on some Peach Scone nonsense with you there in the city

But I can see she knows
Her rights and wrongs
Better than me
I can see she knows her place in the world and where she's meant to be

I'm gonna be there when she gets there
You'd better believe she's on her way there

I stopped on my way from doing something unimportant
So I could check out your place at the new yellow apartment
We picked up breakfast and got that discount from your crewmate
Hung out until dinner: homemade chicken with your roommate

So you struck out vegan
I said "hey, I'll eat vegetarian too"
When you came out as bi
I said "hey, I've slept with a man or two"
Then you said you're enby
I thought "hey, maybe I'm enby too"
Never tryna envy
I just wanna be you

But you never felt quite at home in the great plains of Denver
So you got a plane and went your own way in early September

Now we're locked away
For a year-long straight
And you're out there on the west coast
And you're jealous at me
For having friends to see
When you've got just one notch on your bedpost

So we'll talk every morning
But I can hear your silent scorning
So I really didn't need a warning
When you told me "our friendship's adjourning"

And now you hate all the things I do
You scoff at all the things I like
I don't want
To be like you

They think they know
Their rights and wrongs
Better than me
They think they know
Their place in the world
And where they're meant to be

But I think they already left there
I think they're never gonna get there

Get well soon xoxo
