there, still Lyrics

It was raining in Seattle

My cousin was moving her things

I was so in love with you

I flew all the way just to call it a fling 

Her SUV was fragile 

We could barely fit in her queen 

Delicate glance, so glass thin 

It could shatter In her tiny backseat 

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me

You don’t know me 

You don’t know me like I thought you did

Moon-eyed Cancer, how we orbited

You don’t know me   

Like I thought you did 

Devastation in that grey town 

In the wind, I’ll be okay now

Breathless, deathless, soft sounds

Selfish, hell-sent, spilling out 

I’m spilling out

We got lost searching for an idol’s grave

Elevator silence, hear the song we became

The ache in the home in your eyes that I made

I loved you like a woman

And I loved you like a man

I studied the way you spelled your name

With your gaze drawn in the palm of my hand

I loved you like a prayer

And I loved you like a thief 

What does it mean to love you now?

When you won’t even look at me? 

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me

You don’t know me

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me like I thought you did

You don’t know me

You don’t know me

I loved you like a slaughter

And I loved you like a wake

Like a holy son, a devoted daughter

What’s the use of musing 

Over the dirge we became? 

(You don’t know me)

Warm honey liquor in the parking lot

I told everyone that I forgot

(You don’t)

Your torn jeans from the curb you fought

(You don’t)

Two washed-up kids casting cursed lots

It’s raining here in Phoenix 

With a knot on my tongue

The monsoon loves me, 

So does the flood

The water flows hot like a kinder blood

The desert makes me tough

I know myself well enough, to know 

It was love
