You are a bunch of different versions of the same song
and where she is perfect pictures all day at the park
you are ugly sweaters and carving pumpkins at home.
You always heckled me to do better, about how I never smile in pictures or brushed my teeth right after I ate breakfast
You never could just sit there on the couch and watch a movie with me.
She's perfect you know?
She just wants what I want, she's the same song all the time.
She's consistent and she never gets drunk and cries over silly things like the way my favorite shirt never quite balances on the hanger correctly
She's not you.
She doesn't sit at the piano silently and wait for the sun to hit the middle G key at exactly 9am
And she doesn't like to cook.
You are high heels for no reason, and curly hair all over my face
Where she is skinny, in converse, with perfect make up
you are big and stand tall and will not take no for an answer
You were my first love, but not my last
I am not sorry that I let you leave
If you love something you let it go
I just hope you never come back
Where I am strong and flexible
You have always been weak and stubborn
If you were to come home, I pray to never see you. I pray that you never find me and her sitting at her favorite sushi restaurant, the one that you would just as often go to by yourself.
I hope you never come back and find me and make me fall in love with you again.
Because she is the best
But you will always be the same song in different scales, even when you're gone I still find myself on my toes
hoping I never hear my favorite song again.
