about

A song I wrote after I challenged myself to write like SZA

lyrics

V1:
Maybe I deserve my grandma’s side eye
Guess we got too comfortable too quick
That first night staying up til 5 am just talking
I always felt your smile through the phone
Craved how we’d waste time
We were a walk in the park, key-lime, shoulda known
The smallest parts of me that usually slip through fingers
You picked up on them right away
But more and more I think you used them as a cover up
When you couldn’t meet my love halfway

Chorus:
And I know it’s not me, I’ve learned it’s not me
It’s not me
When a piece of your heart is missing
And I wish I could help pierce through that shell
It’s not my job if you’re withholding
But I still want you to want me x2

V2:
You know what tea I like in the morning
You know I hate shopping when it’s crowded
And you think that’s good enough
But what good is an ocean without salt?
We used to float, but now not at all
I wanna go deeper but you’re too scared of the outcome
You’re here but you’re not here
I can already hear my grandma in my ear
‘A bridge built in an hour falls apart in a minute’
Now I get it
Next to me on the couch seats but your warmth has turned to frost
How am I the third wheel when
it’s just the two of us

Chorus

Outro:
I have a feeling Mr. Wickham would have been more kind
Wouldn’t break me, push me, make me so out of my mind
Gonna twist my heart again, and not think twice ‘cause you not right
Lizzie had it wrong and so did I
But it worked out for her, but not for me, not this time
'Cause you spoiled paradise
