Lyrics:

I carry the time we don’t talk
In a backpack
Leave it on the side with the nights you didn’t
call me back

And all the ideas, and the hope
I’d never ask him for
I’ll throw them away, it’s okay, without a
second thought

God I swore
I wouldn’t play
the age old game
yeah i watched you all ask all your lovers away
rollin your eyes, to the
back of your heads
surely you know to close them instead

Cool girl
Will be different
I’ll be quiet
Oh so easy

Cool girl
Will be different
I’ll be quiet
Oh so easy

How much of a tongue can I bite
Until we notice blood
Spit to the left, carry on
Just smile and say you’re good

you all plead and demand
All your needs but you can’t
He’ll be asked till he’s bored
I would know, I’ve been bored before

Chill out if its late or
Every heavy sigh will seal a fate

God I swore
I wouldn’t play
the age old game
yeah i watched you all ask all your lovers away
rollin your eyes, to the
back of your heads
surely you know to close them instead

Cool girl
Will be different
I’ll be quiet
I’ll be easy

Cool girl
Will be different
I’ll be quiet
I’ll be easy

No I won’t be like them
Want me more than friend
No I won’t be like them
I’ll be quiet again

Cool girl
Will be different
I’ll be quiet
I’ll be easy
Oh so easy
