Lyrics:
i had a dream that you were off your face
your cheeks were burning red
and you were saying my name
almost called to ask if you’re okay
i know it’s not my place
it’s for the better, babe
now he’s reaching down to touch my jeans
and i like the way it’s hard to breathe
then i close my eyes but all i see is you
navy blue
i don’t love you anymore
but when charlie takes your shape
i’m still waiting for my body to play catch
up with my brain
it’s a game of tug of war
a spiked fever i can’t break
something bittersweet stuck in my teeth
a stubborn aftertaste
and i want him to stay
wont you let me catch a break
if i don’t love you anymore
why are you still in the way?
i choose to chalk it up to force of habit
five years at practice
still breaking the pattern
when I say your name by accident
oh, i swear it’s not a freudian slip
‘cause I promise that i’m over it
i stopped crying
it took time but
i don’t love you anymore
but when charlie takes your shape
i’m still waiting for my body to play catch
up with my brain
it’s a game of tug of war
a spiked fever i can’t break
something bittersweet stuck in my teeth
a stubborn aftertaste
and i want him to stay
wont you let me catch a break
if i don’t love you anymore
why are you still in the way?
and i almost called him by your name
subconscious curse or a ghost of shame
i’ll just live with a steady ache
maybe i’ll just live with a steady ache
all the life we lost and the love we made
What if I never find escape?
i’ll just live with a steady ache
maybe i’ll just live with a steady ache
i don’t love you anymore
but when charlie takes your shape
i’m still waiting for my body to play catch
up with my brain
it’s a game of tug of war
a spiked fever i can’t break
something bittersweet stuck in my teeth
a stubborn aftertaste
and i want him to stay
wont you let me catch a break
if i don’t love you anymore
why are you still in the way?
(mmm) (mmm)
why are you still in the way?
(mmm) (mmm)
