avery cochrane - standards lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i woke at half past noon
it’s overcast in mid+june
and i’ve got nothing to do
but talk to the walls in my room

they’re callous and they’re cruel
they’re closing in on me too
i put my phone down and light a cigarette
pray these walls burn down to give me a view

[pre+chorus]
and we both know when you come home
you’ll call me up again
just to p+ss off my mother
and just to call me a friend

oh it’s been several years or so
since i’ve had you in my bed
now you wake next to another
and i pretend not to care

[chorus]
i can’t speak of romance
when they ask me what we had
and i can’t seem to understand
why you would haunt me so casually
and you know that i’ve got standards
but for you, they don’t matter
[verse 2]
i’m swimmin’ in the pool
the pool where i used to meet you
head+first in my shoes
and the water’s not as blue

[pre+chorus]
oh, now we both know i sleep alone
last night i dreamt of you again
i don’t wanna be held by another
just so it can end

oh it’s been several years or so
since i’ve been clear in the head
i can’t confide in my mother
i can’t confide in my friends

[chorus]
yeah i can’t speak of romance
when they ask me what we had
and i can’t seem to understand
why you would haunt me so casually
and you know that i’ve got standards
but for you they don’t matter

[outro]
now i’m wasted at your party
you’re off with the girl who’s not me
you can’t tell her what we had
’cause wouldn’t it drive her mad
so i wish that i never met you
’cause these affairs get so convoluted
but it’s not that i regret this
i just wish i did things different
