Don't Be Like That

(album: On Desire - 2016)

How can you say that with a straight face when it's eight months down the line?
Please don't treat me like a stranger cos I've put in too much time.
If we're forced to be apart, then I'll make up some complaints.
For a lifetime in the dark begins to weigh down.

Back when you were blonde and I was green to your ways.
Back when you were blonde and I was green to your ways.
I still wanna be involved, I just can't make those mistakes.
"Don't be like that," is all you have to say.

That lad pins all of his luck onto that flipped up cigarette.
I re-read the words you wrote then I scroll through my regrets.
If we're forced to be apart, then I'll make up some complaints.
For a lifetime in the dark begins to weigh down.

Back when you were blonde and I was green to your ways.
Back when you were blonde and I was green to your ways.
I still wanna be involved, I just can't make those mistakes.
"Don't be like that," is all you have to say.
