lyrics

All the well groomed boys stare vacantly beyond me
As i shimmy my way through the space they’re occupying
I order two drinks at the bar
One for you, one for me
Then hum a simple melody about hope
There’s no crystal ball
One-size-fits-all solution to be found
And so we circle and fret about finality
I’m still that cynical boy
And you’re still that optimistic boy
And sometimes there’s freedom in accepting that you’ve fucked it up 

A lesson that stings is a lesson you remember
A lesson that stings is a lesson you remember

All the well groomed boys
Huddle up to let you through
And you make your way towards me
With a hesitant smile and an overarched eyebrow
You used to enjoy the fact
That I’ve never been good at small talk
But now you ask polite questions 
And don’t even wait for my response
Well you’re sure what you came here for
No one-more-crack, no oh-go-on-then
So I stand silently and allow your speech to unravel
And even though you must know 
That I’ve got a hunch of where this is headed
Sometimes it’s crippling
To finally form the words 

A lesson that stings is a lesson you remember
A lesson that stings is a lesson you remember

I’m always going to have these flaws
You’re always gonna know how to push my buttons
But I’m not sorry that we left the mess we did
