The Test

Look like a lush. Talk like a tease
The way you like it
In front of your house, alone on the street
You ask me to come inside
Asleep through all our classes
You hang me out to dry

If this is a test
I?m losing my shit
Would it kill you to care
As much as I did?
If this is a test
I’m wasting my breath
You’re a stranger I know well
And not at all

Heart on a hook thrown out to the sea
Your basement busy
Sitting in the dark, I turn the radio off for a
Phone call you’ll likely miss
Wake me when it’s over
The last sound of goodbye

Let’s imagine the end before we even begin
You said

You’re a stranger I know well, and not at all
