New Detroit

(album: I Won't Care How You Remember Me - 2021)

I was thinking about the last time that I saw you
Fighting jet lag in your time zone
You could tell that I was struggling with the ATM
When you said that you could cover me
We made small talk along the way
We were talking about the bullet train, or so I thought

Making your eyes play tricks like camouflage
You can't find yourself
But I don't wanna spend my time
Just wishing that you would push me in
When you know I can't swim

I was thinking about the first time that I saw you
I forget all of the worst parts when you're around me
I was covering my eyes again
From the selective honesty
And you taught me how to fall asleep
Without all this misplaced guilt hanging over me

Making your eyes play tricks like camouflage
You can't find yourself
But I don't wanna spend my time
Just wishing that you would push me in
When you know I can't swim
