Stateside - Knuckle Puck

I watched the bonds we made give way

On your front porch that May

You begged me to go, but I think that I should stay

I wanna know how much you hate me

Before I go across the country, before I go across the country

So act like you never cared

About a spark that wasn’t there

But don’t forget how hard you tried to let me down, but I wouldn’t break free

I never wanted to be the weight that you buried

I’m stuck stateside with you in my head

I couldn’t even get away to New England

So next time that you’re on your kitchen floor

Remember me and what we used to be

And how I couldn’t care less anymore

So act like you never cared

About a spark that wasn’t there

But don’t forget how hard you tried to let me down, but I wouldn’t break free

I never wanted to be the weight that you buried

I’ll hold on to everything you’ve tried to take, cause I’m gone,

I’m the smile you couldn’t fake

Maybe I’ll end up back in your bed, or in a makeshift one in the back of my van

I’ve learned to not rule out anything when it comes to you and me,

except for consistency

So half of what mattered then won’t matter anymore

And at that time I’ll be in another state on another floor

In another state on another floor
