[Verse 1]
Downstairs, halfway dead
Sucking down coffee from a black, old fountain
Is your home where you lay your head
Or where your fake swordfish is mounted?
Eyes crossed, habitually
I would leave the room prematurely
With a tiny little pile of dark roast grounds where I once stood
Just enough there to keep me safe
[Verse 2]
Rained-out, wrapped right up
In our metaphorical overpriced ponchos
Endless rides home, circling the block
For the whisper of a word we didn't know how to use in a sentence
Saw you, wеnt home
Drank myself silly in the basеment alone
And the spiders were showing off a sense of humor on the ceiling
Spinning letters together, I read, “We keep you safe"
[Verse 3]
Lost art, lost boy
Watching a grown man drink a 211 at 11 a.m
Our old joy
But everything is changing even faster than it was back then
You hold me
It feels like I am finally closing my eyes
After a year and a half-long day, and I am tired as hell
Listen close, do you know that you keep me safe?
[Outro]
What'd you do?
In the, uh–
It was so good, what did you do?
I'm sorry
What'd you do?
