before you make another rash decision (before my heart falls right out of my toes) think about the night you showed up on my doorstep wrapped up in your oh my god i need you's eyes big and bloodshot and my heart on your tongue i’m a believer in the past but my lungs shouldn't breathe out nostalgia, rather than carbon dioxide I've killed too many plants and frankly I'm starting to die myself check your winter coat pockets and make sure that tucked away with your peppermint wrappers and crumpled parking passes there aren't any memories too good to forget (I couldn't forget you if I tried) i bet if i went through your shelves i’d find my ponytail holders and Burt’s bees kisses and words that read “we loved each other before we even knew we did” so lets stop the running and the faking and the decision making lets just be
