Union Pool

Straightening your collar 'Cause you know without your father You're just unemployed Dancing on the weekends Oh, you know you own those sequins Kissing all the boys But was it you When the sky turned blue When we said We wouldn't sleep Until our memories rewind You say you are an artist But you know it's just another Way to fit the mold Twenty different leggings For that outfit you're perfecting When it gets too cold But where are you The other one of you The one I met On that day You moved to town from Michigan So why did you listen To the kids at Union Pool? Are they cool? Do they make you think That you're so unsuitable So why do you try To fit this caricature The one you painted Back in high school Of that girl you dreamt to be when you left home Nursing that hangover With a cup of coffee You can see me Walking by Turn your head away Cause you had nothing Left to say So you don't even try But someday, maybe We'll just get away And you will say This was just Another phase in your life Straightening your collar 'Cause you know without your father You're just unemployed Dancing on the weekends Oh, you know you own those sequins Kissing all the boys You say you are an artist But you know it's just another Way to fit the mold Twenty different leggings For that outfit you're perfecting When it gets too cold So why did you listen To the kids at Union Pool Are they cool? Do they make you think That you're so unsuitable So why do you try To fit this caricature The one you painted Back in high school Of that girl you dreamt to be when you left home
