lyrics

Puberty is a sanctuary from which I could see clearly how tension manifests; how it robbed me of my best bets
Of sure things and long nights, of best friends and good lies

I have a name, can't have another
it's ingrained, like love from our mothers
Are you a bad martyr? We could use another!
A smile like a car crash
A love like a flash in the pan
I'll remember you if I can, I'll remember you if I can

I think my brain's just a program, cause it runs "if this, then that" on near endless repeat, until my life is complete.
I only care if this is okay for the folks who I'll see every day

I have a name, can't have another
it's ingrained, like our love from mothers
Are you a bad martyr? We could use another
A smile like a car crash
A love like a flash in the pan
I'll remember you if I can, I'll remember you if I can
