lyrics

before you leave me,
you check the fridge
say "make sure you're eating"
"you know I will"
the double bourbon and coke
with my breakfast
would've made you nervous
"what was the question?"

i wanna sink in your parent's couch
talk about their guests
and clean up the kitchen
and wheel out the trash
all I get is a fire alarm from my building
at 5 am on
christmas morning

when you leave come morning / pull the covers over my head / the sky will fill around over my bed / if it's cold out there
let me crumble
to and from
christmas time
I'll become undone
