lyrics

The exception of love
With the burden of friendship
A later year Subaru with a
Couples therapy session
Paper lanterns cushion no blow
Couples angrily beating their cellphones
Wrapped in foil, saved for later

Hipsters with a nihilist grin
Ordering simple hot drinks
For comfort in the morning
I ask "what's basic?" and you reply "this."
I'm ok with it

And though I hate the smell of coffee in the morning
I'll sit and sweat through pounds of grounds in the evening
Just for the chance you may move your right hand to the west

So when you hit the roundabout
Do you stop to think about
"What's John doing now?"
But when you hit the roundabout
It's far to late to think about
Tomorrow
When you're driving home alone
Do you think about your phone
Cuz I'd like to hear your voice
But when you hit the roundabout
It's far to late to think about
Anyone other than yourself
