Carnations - Palehound

They’re still in love with their ex

And I’m not feeling my best

This is a bad combination

'Cause every time they’re around

I get all dolled up and gowned

Been seeing stars and carnations

'Cause I’ve been dreaming I might

Just up and bail on this plight

And maybe go on vacation

Pack up my shit in the dark

And if the car doesn’t start

It spares us both conversations

I take a train down the coast

And disappear on a boat

To live on berries and kiwis

Settle far from the snow

And when my skin starts to glow

Won’t worry 'bout it all peeling

I’ve got this feeling

I may come back and close up someday

Won’t be all sappy and weepy

'Cause I’ll be rested and warm

Sand in my hair from the shore

My face looks flushed when they see me
