Do you remember the time,
We cried in the supermarket?
You said ‘I don’t know what we’re missing, darling,
I just know that we’ve lost it’
And I tried to take your hand
You left without paying
We sat on the sidewalk, quietly
I heard you saying
I just wish it felt like it used to
I wish I could help, like I used to
But you won’t let me, will you?
You ordered a taxi
And I complain about the price of this city
But I won’t let you pay for it
Well if that isn’t irony
And then at the red light
You told me that I’ve been bittersweet
And I remember thinking
Is that all that I’m ever gonna be?
I just wish it felt like it used to
I wish I could help like I used
But you don’t want me, do you?
I sat in my kitchen
And I watched MTV
I remember thinking
I wish I got groceries
"Woah, slow down,
Things definitely can get heavy at times
But once you shift the focus from
What you think other people want from you
To being ‘what do you want from yourself’
It’s not gonna be like this forever
I hope you’re ok, and I’m sending you my love"
