Worst Places
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
How did I wind up here
Just you and me, uncomfortably with a prickling stomach
Sitting with a bottle of fears
Place my bets on pure coincidence
Your name is common anyway
Don't let them steer your day
But the world is suddenly now a collection of you
In the signs and in the stands I reckon I have seen your hands
How full of you, and void of me, to let you haunt so casually
But god I swore, right past the door, that's where we used to lie
But if I falter curse my mind you truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You will never know how much my child self would cry
If they ever found this out
And you were home (you were home)
And now I simply can't stand the thought of you
Please leave before you say something stupid like "I love you"
You don't know me enough to
In the signs and in the stands I reckon I have seen your hands
How full of you, and void of me, to let you haunt so casually
But god I swore, right past the door, that's where we used to lie
But if I falter curse my mind you truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations you never were
What goes hunting in the dead of night
And echoes through bones that tense so tight
And chips away at heart and soul
Curls itself like honeycomb
Brings a fire to your lips
And burns your throat like whiskey it's
The deep of patience praised they say
She knows the haunting of the wait
Run a block or run a mile persistent like a clingy child
And who'd have thought you'd be the one
I'd lose my mind just running from
But press your ear against the floor, they say your name at night
But if they're silent curse my mind
You truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You show up in the worst places
Etched in my voice and in strangers faces that aren't even yours
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
How did I wind up here
Just you and me, uncomfortably with a prickling stomach
Sitting with a bottle of fears
Place my bets on pure coincidence
Your name is common anyway
Don't let them steer your day
But the world is suddenly now a collection of you
In the signs and in the stands I reckon I have seen your hands
How full of you, and void of me, to let you haunt so casually
But god I swore, right past the door, that's where we used to lie
But if I falter curse my mind you truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You will never know how much my child self would cry
If they ever found this out
And you were home (you were home)
And now I simply can't stand the thought of you
Please leave before you say something stupid like "I love you"
You don't know me enough to
In the signs and in the stands I reckon I have seen your hands
How full of you, and void of me, to let you haunt so casually
But god I swore, right past the door, that's where we used to lie
But if I falter curse my mind you truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations you never were
What goes hunting in the dead of night
And echoes through bones that tense so tight
And chips away at heart and soul
Curls itself like honeycomb
Brings a fire to your lips
And burns your throat like whiskey it's
The deep of patience praised they say
She knows the haunting of the wait
Run a block or run a mile persistent like a clingy child
And who'd have thought you'd be the one
I'd lose my mind just running from
But press your ear against the floor, they say your name at night
But if they're silent curse my mind
You truly have the worst time
You show up in the worst places
Etched in the isles and the gas stations
You show up in the worst places
Etched in my voice and in strangers faces that aren't even yours
