Lucy Dacus - Direct Address lyrics

You know it's unfair that I am here and you are there. I feel short in the exchange- I show you mine you walk away. I'm wearing mine out on my sleeve, you're wearing yours where I can't see, But I'll remember your face for years to come And wonder what you thought about when you got home. Honestly is like a kiss on the lips. Come closer and I'll tell you exactly how it is. Now I'm barely breathing, I'm moving ahead, But if I see you smile, it's gonna knock me dead. I'm stiff in my tracks trying to recover From whatever drug you used to put me under. I don't believe in love at first sight. I don't believe in love at first sight. It's hard enough for me to not fall in love with every person I see. I let my mind get turned inside out Just to see what the kids were laughing about. It wasn't worth understanding something I could've gone my whole life not knowing. You know what they say about curiosity. That murderer had his chokehold on me. I ran away without looking back, But every now and then I want what I can't have. I'm still thinking of a man from years ago- Eyes open wide in the front row, Dark features, leaning on the doorframe. I would've sold my soul to know his first name. I don't believe in love at first sight. I don't believe in love at first sight. I don't believe in love at first sight. Maybe I would if you looked at me right.
