Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The first time I tasted somebody else's spit, I had a coughing fit

I mistakenly called them by your name

I was let down, it wasn't the same

[Verse 2]

I'm doing fine, trying to derail my one track mind

Regaining my self-worth in record time

But I can't help but think of your other in the bed that was mine

[Verse 3]

Am I a masochist, resisting urges to punch you in the teeth

Call you a bitch and leave?

Why did I come here? To sit and watch you stare at your feet?

What was the plan? Absolve your guilt and shake hands?

[Chorus]

I feel no need to forgive but I might as well

But let me kiss your lips so I know how it felt

Pay for my coffee and leave before the sun goes down

Walk for hours in the dark feeling all hell

[Verse 4]

Don't hold your breath, forget you ever saw me at my best

You don't deserve what you don't respect

Don't deserve what you say you love and then neglect

[Verse 5]

Now bite your tongue, it's too dangerous to fall so young

Take back what you said

Can't lose what you never had

[Chorus]

I feel no need to forgive but I might as well

But let me kiss your lips so I know how it felt

Pay for my coffee and leave before the sun goes down

Walk for hours in the dark feeling all hell

[Refrain]

You got a 9 to 5, so I'll take the night shift

And I'll never see you again if I can help it

In five years, I hope the songs feel like covers

Dedicated to new lovers

[Refrain]

You got a 9 to 5, so I'll take the night shift

And I'll never see you again if I can help it

In five years, I hope the songs feel like covers

Dedicated to new lovers

[Refrain]

You got a 9 to 5, so I'll take the night shift

And I'll never see you again if I can help it

In five years, I hope the songs feel like covers

Dedicated to new lovers
