I dance trembling hands across my keyboard Typing the same meaningless chorus But every time the backspace button Plays the bass and When I read it back I can never seem to play it quite right I type the words along to the beat of my metronome heart Hoping one day my song will be good enough for you to hear It sounds a lot like your moans And mine flowing together in perfect harmony But one note is always off And it’s the sound of you leaving Before we even make it to the bridge I should have known that I was never your favorite genre
