Lyrics

Met you at the dive bar to go shoot some pool

And make fun of the cowboys with the neck tattoos

I ask you easy questions about work and school

I'm trying to be cool about it

Feeling like an absolute fool about it

Wishing you were kind enough to be cruel about it

Telling myself I can always do without it

Knowing that it probably isn't true

I came prepared for absolution, if you'd only ask

So I take some offense when you say, "No regrets"

I remember it's impossible to pass your test

But I'm trying to forget about it

Feeling like I'm breaking a sweat about it

Wishing you would kindly get out of my head about it

Telling myself one day I'll forget about it

Knowing that it probably isn't true

Once, I took your medication to know what it's like

And now I have to act like I can't read your mind

I ask you how you're doing, and I let you lie

But we don't have to talk about it

I can walk you home and practice method acting

I'll pretend being with you doesn't feel like drowning

Telling you, "It's nice to see how good you're doing"

Even though we know it isn't true
