Who You Could Be

At your parents for the day
You'll be 24 in May
We've been on and off a couple months
And your mom set out the tablecloth

Talkin' Jesus over tea
And she's starin' right at me
Like I'm some sort of anti-Christ
For teachin' you there's more to life

Than bein' where you are
But you don't know where to start

So I try to fix
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this

'Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be

You've been working for a wage
You say, "It's a little phase"
That you're goin' through a reset
But it's been that way since we met

I wish I didn't doubt
That maybe this time you'll come around
See your future is an open door
But I can't unlock the key to yours

'Cause I'll love you until the end
But I can't do this again

So why try to fix?
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this

'Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be
