lyrics

You're an earth angel and I'm a class act with a collection of red flags
Maybe I was naive to think you could ever love me back
But I still can't help getting jealous of every minute you don't want to spend with me
I had higher hopes than I should've had
I don't want to be your friend but I'll take what I can get

I fall in love too easily, don't fucking judge me for that
I chose you because I don't want to give up my identity for another high maintenance extrovert
It's fucking stressful being little spoon all the time
I've got nothing in common with the free spirited and happy types
And I don't have patience like I used to for all the required social obligations of the 21st century woman

I like you because you like small town living and quiet evenings playing board games
I like you because your anxiety is evident in your facial expressions whenever peer pressure derails your thinking process
You might dislike your grey hairs but I find them endearing
And you gotta teach me how to smile because yours is fucking immaculate
Mine is maniacal it'd do well to be taken down a few notches
Perhaps it scared you away before you had the chance to tame it
Perhaps I'm being too idealistic
Lying to myself about your interest level is something I take great care in getting right

That jigsaw puzzle we started was left unfinished on my coffee table for months before I conceded that you were not coming back to finish it
