Interlude (Full Length)

(álbum: Rolling Up The Welcome Mat (For Good) - 2023)

There's a thin line between love and hate
And it was love, but it wasn't fate
Now my momma's asking if I'm okay
And the Internet says I'm losing weight
This wasn't how it was supposed to play out
So which side are you gonna take now?
'Cause people that I loved
Are just people that I knew once
The rumors going 'round, but the truth is kinda nuanced
I wanna set it straight, but my lawyer says I shouldn't
And ain't it like this town to only criticize a woman
Am I right?
'Cause hindsight says I was right
Must've hit a nerve
Damn, people got offended
Kinda scary opening a wound that time had mended
But everyone wanted the "Interlude" to be extended
Guess I gotta send it

There's a thin line between love and hate
I got drunk, and you meditated
Said I'd get it one day with age
Guess it got your ego inflated
Wasn't supposed to be a takedown
But which side are you gonna take now?

I wonder what we'll both say
When we see each other 'round town
We said we'd handle this the right way
I guess we've done each other wrong now
I hope you sleep better at night now that you got an army
Of people that believe I'm the word that you used to call me
Needed to be the angel for someone that doesn't Jesus
I told you mine, so when location died, what was your secret?

We really turned goodbye to a game to a hobby
You collected bones, but I buried the bodies
All this back and forth
Well, it's feeling pretty sloppy
Paste, copy

I mean it even more now a few months later
I'm blowing up my life, but I'm standing by the crater
That's all that's left to say
You can love her, you can hate her
'Cause twenty-three me, now I know
"Happy ever after" ain't always true
Sometimes that's how it goes
And that was us
Me and you
Forever's just the interlude
