Once when I called just to see

That you'd gotten home safe

I wasn't honestly

Worried about you


But, don't you dare get me wrong

I'm enamored of you

Hot and bothered it's true

You're the shit


It's just...sometimes my heart gets too heavy

And I need to jettison a thing or two

When you're alone on the east coast

It's easier to call than to know what to do


You say you're okay to drive

And I'll trust you 'cause

You wouldn't lie to me

Or would you


Just don't forget your way home

And get lost all alone

Like you did the last time

I called you


Once when the light's went out the moon

Was all I could see and it felt good

But something wasn't right on that beach

Everything got colder when I fell asleep


It's just...sometimes my heart gets too heavy

And I need to jettison a thing or two

When you're alone on the east coast

It's easier to get drunk than to know what to do

It's easier to turn a blind eye than to see what you do

It's easier to give up than to get through to you

It's easier to give in than to get rid of you
