You watch me trail along
Wanting to be closer than logic allows
I look up to you
You put me down
Hiding at the neighbor's
Shushing as our friends call our names
Closer than comfort
Wrapped in shade
You call me by her name
But I was here first
And I was your girl
♪
You live in dark corners to drag me in
I am 18, I find it romantic
Needing support and secrets kept hidden
Feeling rebellious, feeling giganitc
You weren't a good person but moments were nice
Ignoring my conscience for a touching the night
Drive to the hospital
Trying to wake you
Dragged from the property
Right, see you later
You call me by her name
But I was here first
And I was your girl
And you call me by her name
But I was here first
And I was your girl
Your hand over my mouth
Decipher the sounds I push to make
Say you're "better now"
Ignoring lies, I'll guess it's safe
I don't see you around
Unless you're on me, pressed against my face
Say you're "happy now"
It's not the same, I need some space
Sculptures come to life and someone asks me if I'm famous
I'm shifting actuality, you'll stay the same as
When grass is wet and August's cold
Meet me in the car and have you hold me
A moment so kind, the windows misting
Ask if you're mine and then you kiss me
I think I have to go
