Jacket
I've still got your t-shirt hanging on my door
And yes, I think of you occasionally
Like when I'm crying on the bathroom floor
Not gonna lie babes, I have cried too much
You're not getting it back
You know you stripped down every wall I had
And you can watch me paint it black
I've been giving myself the same pep talk
For like months and months and years at this point
Get out while you can, girlie
Get out, just leave
I took a load of time, why am I still craving
Like surely I should be out with my girls
Like skanking and raving
And still I'm telling him, oh yeah yeah
Yeah I'm over this mess
But here we are again together
Oi, give me back my dress
I can't breathe and I can't believe
I'm falling for your sweet talking again
You try to spike up your hair
The light would shine upon your shoulder
Then you'd look at me that way
(oh no, no)
You got me there, got me in your cage
Feels like a never ending talking stage
You never showed me you care
You really couldn't be colder
Listen to me when I say
(oh, no, no)
It can't be you, your cheekbones and your lies
No it can't be you in that jacket with those
Dark eyes
Dark eyes
You're acting like you're taller than you really are
(And it's awkward)
You're sitting pretty on that high horse baby
Can you even drive a car
And yeah you're taller than me, Ha!
It's not hard my darling
Newsflash
I'm only 5'3
I can't breathe and I can't believe
That I've fallen for that
Fucking smile again
You'd try to spike up your hair
The light would shine up on your shoulder
Then you'd look at me that way
I'm back here again
I'm right back in your cage
I'm Mr Content, King of the talking stage
You never show me you care
You really couldn't be colder
Listen to me when I say
(no, no, no)
It can't be you, your cheekbones and your lies
No it can't be you in that jacket with those
Dark eyes
Dark eyes
The secret you're holding
It's making me stay
I wish you to speak plain and simple
Cos clearly I'm sticking
Just waiting to see if you'll play
Give me a moment
I'm taking my time
I need you to sit there and listen
Cos something is missing
And I'm gonna break down into tears
Ha ha ha ha ha
You try to spike up your hair
The light would shine upon your shoulder
Then you'd look at me that way
I'd fall again
But now I really can't be arsed
My friends were right
It's never gonna last
You shouldn't have said it out loud
That you don't want me till we're older
Jesus Christ, what does that mean
It can't be you, your cheekbones and your lies
No it can't be you in that jacket with those
Jacket with those
Jacket with those
Jacket with those
Dark eyes
Then you'd look at me that way
It can't be you, your cheekbones and your lies
No it can't be you in that jacket with those
Jacket with those
Jacket with those dark eyes
Jacket with those
Dark eyes
And yes, I think of you occasionally
