“You threw me a party on Saturday

But you know I don’t know how to celebrate

Dancing to “Isn’t She Lovely”

Where did you learn how to love me?

‘Cause I got a

Black heart that I wear on my sleeve

Old flames still messaging me

Between that and the ADHD

You should run a milе (Oh)

Held back by the weight of my past

I’m a walking rеd flag

Why don’t you leave?

And you said, “Shut your mouth and kiss me”

So I kissed you –

But I didn’t mean to stay.

I meant to ruin it, like I ruin everything.

You kept your hands steady,

your eyes steady,

and I don’t know what to do with that.

Do you?

It’s in the way that you’re unfazed

By all the bullshit they say

And you correct them when they lie

My little alibi

“And show me where the light is, and I’ll deny it

‘Cause I’m afraid to live, I’m not scared of dying

Abandonment issues get ugly

Does that make it harder to love me?”

Kiss me
