lyrics

I'm on your grandmother's sofa
In your living room
The decorative flags fly above me
You're angled towards me
Telling me stories
Like how you broke into Disneyland
And I nod along
Try not to nod off
HOW IS EVERYBODY ELSE HERE HAVING FUN?
And they walk in
And they ignore me
My breathing shortens
I can't help but tune you out

I can't help but wonder who here is gonna leave first
I can't help but wonder who here is gonna die first

You take my hand around your house
To check out all your collections
You're observant, I'll give you that
At your bookshelf you ask,
"Have you ever read Kerouac?"
I didn't respond
I could tell he defines you
BUT I'M GONNA LET YOU KISS ME ANYWAY
Because I love mistakes
I carry them with me
And nothing that happens tonight will leave this party

I can't help but wonder who here is gonna leave first
I can't help but wonder who here is gonna die first

How old is too old
To have my mom pick me up from the party?
How close is too close
For some stranger to be sitting next to me?
How long is too long
For you to talk at me before I leave?
How far is too far
To stumble home in the summer heat?

I've been drinking way too much
Am I making it obvious enough?
I've been thinking way too much
This isn't something that I want

I can't help but wonder who here is gonna leave first
I can't help but wonder who here is gonna die first

IS IT GONNA BE ME?
IS IT GONNA BE ME?
IS IT GONNA BE ME?
IS IT GONNA BE?
