On Monday
And, like
And if there's uh
And um
And it was done playing
And
Like, looking
At a lot of stuff
Like, they have people on there making
And then
Like, I just hit home and turned my phone off
But uh
And if there's uh, my manager's
Like
Like, looking
At a lot of stuff
On Monday

Stop acting so guarded
You must mistake the tenderness
Of a lover invited
For the pity you wanted to escape
Lend me some closure
What enticed you to run from my embrace
What did I amount to
Was I more than a trial for you to face
Driving home after work, trying to clear my head
(Only filling it further with you)
It starts to rain
I remember the street lights bleeding together in streaks
Across my window
It's one of those moments that forces me to remember
How you tethered me
(And my own eyes as I cried too)
The entire afternoon the world has been collapsing around me
And it hurts knowing that nobody else sees it
Thought to myself on the drive home that
If the Earth was blown to bits in an instant
That it might just be okay
(I'm aware of how sardonic this makes me sound)
This is the first of many nights that I can no longer share with you
(And though I may want to still)
I won't be texting at 2am 'I love you' because my Costar says to
When I call it back to you
I run the risk of swapping out
The memories we made alone
With the archetype I've grown
In every pisces I have known
(And so now)
I'm putting all these thoughts to rest
Of horoscopes and stellar cause
With the hopes that I've immortalized in this
Not the trauma when you left
But the feeling when we kissed
