Courtesy Greetings

[Verse 1]

Form to find our confrontation in the East Room

It's about time I 'fessed up

Delay the process while I pick up your tab

And leave the bar anxious and messed up

It's about time I come to terms with who I've become

You see, no one talks about the terms until the damage is done

So, it's so long, I'm sorry, I owe you so much more

Resurface, repurpose but slowly, slowly close the door

[Chorus]

We're falling apart but insisting that everything's fine

Sharing courtesy greetings confirming we're nice but not kind

[Verse 2]

I walk in circles leaving threads instead of carpet

I walk this path alone

But we found a light inside a nice place to hide

And scrubbed our numbers from a pair of telephones

Returning furniture, I fell beneath a blank stare, a coffee and a cure

To press on, and press on, and press on, and press on, and press on to ponder if you're there

[Chorus]

We're falling apart but insisting that everything's fine

Sharing courtesy greetings confirming we're nice but not kind

Falling apart but insisting that everything's fine

Sharing courtesy greetings, just courtesy greetings

[Verse 3]

Agree to disagree that our karma is fair, not always right

For dimensions we saved and decisions we've made

It's just too late to say that our twenties had held on too tight

Our twenties had held on too tight

Our twenties had held on too tight

[Bridge]

It's about time I come to terms with who I've become

You see, no one talks about the terms until the damage is done

[Verse 4]

We were a common goal, we were a sight to see

Both treading lightly on the basis of humility

For everything we've done and every common ground

It's best to not turn around, oh

It's best to not turn around

Sharing courtesy greetings, confirming we're nice but not kind (It's about time I come to terms with who I've become)

[Chorus]

Falling apart but insisting that everything's fine (You see, no one talks about the terms until the damage is done)

Sharing courtesy greetings, just courtesy greetings

[Outro]

So long, I'm sorry, I owe you so much more (Falling apart but insisting that everything's fine)

(Resurface, repurpose but slowly close the door) Sharing courtesy greetings confirming we're nice, but not
