Twelve To One

(album: Bury The Lede - 2023)

Summer on the subway
Whole city sweating on the platform
And the four would go to my place
But there's bodies pressed against the train doors
I'll wait 'til the next one comes
Been wearing that phrase out
It's hard to meet someone
To unmeet the last one somehow

Oh, there's your face in the crowd again
I see you all over town
It's like there must be a dozen of you
But just one me and lately she's breaking down

Oreos and bourbon
I rent a movie and I watch it in bed

But then the camera pulls back
A sea of people out in the park

I lean in and I'm shot through the

Oh, there's your face in the crowd again
I see you all over town
It's like there must be a dozen of you
But just one me and lately she's breaking down
Oh, there's your face in the crowd again

It's like there must be a dozen of you
Oh, I guess I'll see you around

I guess I'll see you around
I guess I'll see you around
I guess I'll see you around
I guess I'll see you around

There's your face in the crowd again
I see you all over town
It's like there must be a dozen of you
But only one me and she's freaking out

Oh, there's your face in the crowd again
I see you all over town
It's like there must be a dozen of you
But just one me and lately she's breaking down
Oh, there's your face in the crowd again
I see you all over town
It's like there must be a dozen of you
Oh, I guess I'll see you around
