You said
“I’m sure”
Till the wind changed sides
Plans on the fridge door
Curl at the edges
Dry
Your suitcase by the hallway
Been there for days
You keep your shoes on
Like you’re halfway away
You can change at any time
Like a train that skips my station
Like a word that slips your mind
Leave me holding this translation
Thought I knew your face
Your lines
But you rewrite every night
You can change at any time
I’m the last one reading right
Mugs in the sink
Lipstick
Chipped blue paint
Laughing in photos
Of people we ain’t
You talk about the future
Like it’s some old friend
Showing up late again
Waiting in the rain
You can change at any time
Like a train that skips my station
Like a word that slips your mind
Leave me holding this translation
Thought I knew your face
Your lines
But you rewrite every night
You can change at any time
I’m the last one reading right
If you’re already gone
Say it out loud (say it out loud)
Don’t leave me stuck
In this drifting crowd
If you’re staying here
Prove it somehow (somehow)
‘Cause I can’t live
On “maybe” now
You can change at any time
Like a train that skips my station
Like a word that slips your mind
Leave me holding this translation
Thought I knew your face
Your lines
But you rewrite every night
You can change at any time
So I’m learning how to lie
Tell myself I’m doing fine
As you change again
This time
