Threnody to the Car Crash Hearts - Misogi

I give up, I surrender

I’m still stuck in that September

I could draw the way you looked

But what you said, I can’t remember

We were killing daisies

The payback’s crazy

You said you’d come home soon

I’m still waiting

I’ve seen this sunset before

If I stayed longer

Then this would be forced

Close up my windows and doors

There’s cars down my street

They sound so much like yours

I give up, I surrender

I’m still stuck in that September

I could draw the way you looked

But what you said, I can’t remember

We were killing daisies

The payback’s crazy

You said you’d come home soon

I’m still waiting

I redid my place like it’s yours

So if you came through town

When you stopped by you’re warm

My eyes have aged, tired and worn

But I’d live the same

Even if I was warned

I wrote you this song but I doubt you’ll ever hear it

You walk past couture and treat the windows like they’re mirrors

From inside the store, it seems like I got ignored

But you weren’t looking past the door

To be down

I can show you what it’s like to be down

To be down

To be down

To be down

To be down

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and let the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five
