lyrics
I had the whole thing queued at six ten Your mug left a ring on the blue counter then I faced the mirror, said it line by line But when you walked in, I swallowed my spine Keys on the dish, rain on the pane Your phone face-down, my jaw in a frame I looked at your coat on the back of the chair Then let the whole speech die there Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line And you laughed, and I nodded Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Now it's stuck in my body On the 149, I wrote it on notes By Peckham Rye, with cold on my throat I saved every comeback, clean and neat Then you said my name and erased the beat Train doors hissed, your scarf hit my wrist All that rehearsing gone in a twist I meant to say hurt, meant to say enough Instead I just held my bag too tough Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line And you laughed, and I nodded Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Now it's stuck in my body I had the timing, the pause, the stare Three weeks of sentences laid out there But your voice came soft in the kitchen light And my whole brave speech turned polite Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line And you laughed, and I nodded Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Missed my line Now it's stuck in my body
