Time On

(album: marginalia - 2022)

I was reeling on a Tuesday
We waited hours in a line
It's too cold in Massachusetts
Next to you, I didn't mind
Then I'm losing by a landslide
'Cause in my head I'm keeping score
Plus, I'm moving out to Brooklyn
So it doesn't matter anymore

And you know I want to
But everybody wants you
And it just hurts 'cause you know all the things to say

But if you wanted to break my heart
I'm strong
I can take it
Going down but I'll
Take the fall if you break it
And I'm telling you now
That I'll leave the light on
If you're looking for someone to
Waste your time on
Your time on

By the weekend, I'm a stranger
Change of heart, you've had enough
Always good in moderation
'Til you're sick and I'm too much
(Too much, too much)
But

If you wanted to break my heart
I'm strong
I can take it
Going down but I'll
Take the fall if you break it
And I'm telling you now
That I'll leave the light on
If you're looking for someone to
Waste your time on
Your time on

And don't you want to
Let somebody want you
It just hurts 'cause you know all the things to say
But if you wanted to...
(Ahh, I could take it)
Take the fall if you break it

But if you wanted to break my heart
I'm strong
I can take it
Going down but I'll
Take the fall if you break it
And I'm telling you now
That I'll leave the light on
If you're looking for someone to
Waste your time on

But if you wanted to break my heart
I'm strong
I can take it
Going down but I'll
Take the fall if you break it
And I'm telling you now
That I'll leave the light on
If you're looking for someone to
Waste your time on
