A Picture Of Us Smiling At A Party 5 Years Ago

(الألبوم: Big Hurt Boy - 2022)

We were drinking red wine
We were both kind of red-eyed
I'm wearing a jacket I wouldn't wear these days
And someone's going outside
Or reaching for a lighter
On the right side of the frame

I musta been smiling for the camera
Because I don't remember feeling good back then
This is before we got pushed out
'Cause someone bought the building and raised the rent
I'm struck by our expression and how little it shows
In this picture of us smiling at a party
Five years ago

Our shitty apartment
A flash in the darkness
Posing in a crowded room
It all feels imagined, but
It musta happened
'Cause I got the cold hard proof

I think I was smiling for the camera
Because I don't remember feeling much back then
This is before we got pushed out
'Cause someone bought the building and raised the rent
I'm struck by our expression and how little it shows
In this picture of us smiling at a party
Five years ago

I found it stuck between some pages
I wasn't trying to save it
But I didn't throw it away

I musta been smiling for the camera
Because I don't remember smiling much back then
This is before we settled down
And just got used to staying in
I'm struck by our expression and everything we didn't know
In this picture of us smiling at a party
Five years ago
