Empty Party Rooms

The radio is playing songs
about those loves we never get
besides this one
but then we’d have to admit it
so let’s keep it boxed up
a fiction we don’t know we’re living
pretending to have time
to take until we give it

It doesn’t matter if we let it go
Right or wrong
It doesn’t matter if we let it go
We’ll never turn this love on

I saw your eyes straight on
did I hold them for too long?
Maybe no one saw

Bringing this all up again–
We used to talk about it
in empty party rooms
How wrong we always were
when there’s nothing to be done
