To Tell the Truth

Beginning of May

You drove across state

And fell asleep mid trace

Of my fingers on your face

The christians were pissed

But you kissed me and insisted

We were right

And that I was worth the fight

It was moments like these

We were on the same team

So we’d get through

It was good to tell the truth

If we could make it one year, we could make it two

It was good to be with you

Sedate your anger

Play your games and fall asleep

Drunk on the couch

Take your drugs and pass out

I’ll be in our loft

Crying soft and jerking off

Sweat off the fight

Call you up and hit the light

It’s moments like these

If we’re on the same team

We’ll get through

It’s tough to tell the truth

I think we’re gonna make it another year or two

It’s tough to be with you

I promise i’ll remember

To call your mom on every sunday

I’ll remember how you hold me

Every time i’m going under

It’s not that we were nothing

It’s that i composed you 21 love songs

And you remember none

It’s moments like these

If we’re on the same time

We’ll get through

It’s fucked to tell the truth

I knew i’d only make it another year or two

It was tough to tell the truth

It’s tough to be with you
