wilbur soot - the cashier and the runaway lyrics
the nightshift drags
as mark runs down the markdowns
and my heels drag around the aisles
as i search for jobs to do
and the till rang
and i dread
the next lumbering 4am stoner
but you
it was such a unimportant detail
but i thought it worth mentioning
the candy you picked was cheaper down the aisle
you see they put the expensive ones at the front
to convince hasty shoppers to buy it
it’s dangerous business practices like this that are putting my shop out of business
i’m rambling
you laugh
you thank me
i now realize that i’m staring
and look away
but you
you meet my stare
i ask about your day
to try and prolong your transaction
you tell me that you’re in a pretty good way
my eyes light up
trying badly to compete with yours
you tell me you’re actually trying to run away
“that’s cool”
far cooler than me to be honest
you were just tired of the constant nagging and the constant feeling of needing to do better and reams of feeds of social media pouring into your mind and feeding you an image of how you needed to be
“okay”
while the sentiment is a little contrived i can totally get behind that
then come with me
you say
but you
you meet my stare
and you
want to take me somewhere
this convenient store rat race could finally come to close
just a girl i’ve barely met and a long stretch of road
i say goodbye
you leave through the sliding doors
and i stand there and watch you drive away
and though it’s probably futile
each night i wait with baited breath
and every customer who comes in
i hope is you
every night
