I saw you last night I tightened my jaw and averted my eyes But not before I sympathized with the plaid shirt hanging from your hunched shoulders Those buttons that have been replaced with my teeth, chipping away against your sternum leaving me with a skyline smile I saw you last night I smiled You acted like you had seen the sun set on this city a thousand times

Skyline
I saw you last night I tightened my jaw and averted my eyes But not before I sympathized with the plaid shirt hanging from your hunched shoulders Those buttons that have been replaced with my teeth, chipping away against your sternum leaving me with a skyline smile I saw you last night I smiled You acted like you had seen the sun set on this city a thousand times
