Music by Men

In every book in the house, notes from you fall out All the love that came my way, I found a way to push away I don't wanna be afraid anymore I don't wanna run from love like I had before And on the way to couples therapy, you put your headphones in So you didn't have to talk to me Listening to our own demos on the ride home You have a bigger ego than you think you do Slide down in my seat so as not to threaten you Let it be us, let it be home Falling asleep and not looking at our phone 'Cause I know how to fall in love, I do it constantly I fall in love with everyone I meet for ten minutes at least Then comes the work, the resentments, and the hurt Looking at your haircut and that stupid band T-shirt I always thought I was nice, I thought I was kind 'Til I tried to do something that was almost real life It's not like what I've seen in TV shows It's not like what I've read in books It's so much harder than it looks And there isn't much applause If it required practice and dedication, I just got bored We discussed something called compromise A brand new concept that I never tried Let it be us, let it be home Falling asleep and not looking at our phone 'Cause I know how to fall in love, I do it easily I fall in love with everyone I meet for ten minutes at least Then comes the work, the resentments, and the hurt Looking at your haircut and that stupid band T-shirt, hmm Breaking my bones, getting four out of five Listening to a song by The 1975 I thought, 'Fuck it, I might as well give music by men a try' Let there be love, let there be light Let there be a quiet day and an easy night Let me put out a record and have it not ruin my life Let it be us, let it be home Let it not be a spotlight standing alone Running back to the only love I could ever control
