lyrics

Self-checkout
On a bleak Sunday morning
Let a breath out
And a thought started forming
Gonna drown it
Before it makes me think of you

But these blue laws
That this red state is making
That's the last straw
This is too much to take
I'm buying White Claw
‘Cause somehow that slipped through

I ain't been taking such good care of myself
My friends are worried 'bout my mental health
But I just smile and say I'm doing well
‘Cause I’ve learned by example how to let it rot inside

If there's a reason I should stay
You're gonna have to show me
Since you left the whole damn state's a scrapbook
Of spoiled memories
And I'm landlocked by a whole bunch of places that I don't wanna go
And I'm sick to death of the fact that I call this home

There's the restaurant
Where we met in the kitchen
And the front lawn
Where my heart made the decisions
Like a love song
I suddenly believed was true

It's been a month now
And I'm still saving things
I should've thrown out
‘Cause they're making me sick
Like the bath towels
Your mom bought when you moved in

Can't I feel good for a little bit?
Do you have to be in everything?
Never showed you the engagement ring
But it's here in the dresser in case you change your mind

If there's a reason I should stay
You're gonna have to show me
Since you left the whole damn state's a scrapbook
Of spoiled memories
And I'm landlocked by a whole bunch of places that I don't wanna go
And I'm sick to death of the fact that I call this home

The Bible Belt is wrapped around my neck
And the specter of who you once were is holding the other end
At night in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma
I see your face inside the ambient light in the sky up above Tulsa
You're the constellation that never seems to fade
Even though the stars burned out and died away

Put in two weeks
I'll be gone before August
Broke the new lease
Didn't need that deposit
On two feet
Gonna walk before you see me crawl
Here's hoping I don't need you after all
