about

Not a breakup song. A regret song.

lyrics

It’s not much, but if I could, I’d ask God to shake the ground under the places I stood so regrettably still.
It’s not much, but I’d write a little bit of a song for you every night
So that I wouldn't look the fool when I had nothing to give you on the night you left for school.

It’s not much, but I’d entrust you with every last thing I've been too scared to discuss with anyone else.
It’s not much, but I’d interlock our fingers before you succumb to the hands of the clock. You’re waking up too soon.

Too soon for Frosted Flakes
And I’m not charming, I just got lucky by mistake.
A sweet swirl of fate
And you’re more than good: you’re Kate.

It’s too much for me to disguise my frightened captivation with the glitter on your eyes. You’re slightly pale, but I’m the ghost.
It’s too much, so I implore the mosquitoes to resign or prepare for war. We’re not going inside.

It does me no good to say so, but I know that I’m a bore.
You deserve someone less concerned with old TV and dirty floors.
Please excuse all my silence, I need you to think that I am fine.
So for now just tell me about your life and I’ll pretend like it’s mine.
