lyrics

don’t tell me your middle name
you know i’ll say it sounds the same as mine
and don’t tell me the color of your eyes
i’ll stare too long until i recognize you

don’t tell me you’ll come back soon
and bend your body like a crescent moon
i bet you’ll stand up straight when you walk away
lose the slouch you use to fool me that you’ll stay
and don’t tell me your middle name
don’t tell me your middle name

don’t tell me you don’t believe in god
i heard you cry lord when you saw blood
on your finger, for putting your hand where it doesn’t belong
don’t tell me you don’t believe in god
don’t tell me you don’t believe in god

don’t tell me you don’t smoke, i saw the fire
from miles away, the sulfur in your shame
when you wax poetic, a candlestick melting
i was taught not to trust an open flame
so don’t tell me that you’re broken, don’t tell me you don’t smoke and
don’t tell me your middle name
don’t tell me your middle name

everyone’s gonna let me down if i let them
everyone’s gonna let me down if i let them
everyone’s gonna let me down if i let them
everyone’s gonna let me down if i let
