New start in a small town
Pulled apart by foreign eyes
Not like when I disappeared
Into the chaos of crowds
Grew intimate with a tease
Underneath a microscope
All being introduced too soon
Bore the promises of deceit
Paused the mainstream music
Needed to get out of this party
Didn’t need a fuckboy to leave with
Not drunk enough to lose myself
Drove home silently along lit roads
Careful to turn off headlights
Before approaching driveway
Turned off my buzzing phone
