Lately afternoon with the shades drawn down I kept saying I just wanted to see you Saying, “What's wrong with that?“ Needles shaking outlines in a compass Every outcome's such a comedown [Chorus 1] I knew it when I saw it So I did just what I wanted So I go through with this I knew happiness when I saw it I saw your boyfriend at the port authority It's a sort of fucked up place Well so I averted my stride on a quick one He's coming back from going over to your place, huh? I feel like I could forget about it I feel like I could mellow out I don't feel undone in a big way There's nothing really bad to be upset about But when I thought I was getting better I woke up on the ground An appointment or disappointment I set back, oh, another comedown [Chorus 2] As if I needed a reminder Oh, I do only what I want to So I go through with this I knew happiness when I saw it Walking out in the nighttime springtime Needling my way home I saw Leah on the bus a few months ago I saw some old friends at her funeral My steps keep splitting my grief Through these solipsistic moods I should call my parents when I think of them Should tell my friends when I love them Maybe I should have gone out a bit more When you guys were still in town I got too caught up in my own shit It's how every outcome's such a comedown [Chorus 3] And I knew it when I saw it Oh, I did just what I wanted So I go through with this I knew happiness when I saw it Subscribe to Run For Cover on YouTube to stay updated on all out releases: Videos, news and more: Like RFC on Facebook: Follow RFC on Twitter: Read our Tumblr:
