Adulting / Alyssa Lyrics by Anthony Green Jr

Ex Girlfriend

2016

Adulting/Alyssa
We go from meeting in the moon light straight to the rush of the morning. Leaving without a trace you become a number in my head.
I become a conversation piece for you to discuss with your friends.
The obligation we feel in the a.m. is awkward.
We choose wrong over right every time as if we don’t understand the difference.
It would be deeper if we could connect over appetite and conversation.
In our minds nothing seems to be deeper than sex.
I can tell that we are kids because we do childish things without hesitation.
I can tell that we are kids because when it rains we never cover our heads.
We just get wet and hope we never get sick.
/
I wonder if you wonder what’s beyond my name sometimes.
I never questioned how you felt about one night stands because you made it clear how you felt about the double standard.
The obligation we feel in the a.m. is awkward.
I pretend to sleep and you rush to leave.
We were partners in the night.
When we awake the elephant is always there to greet us.
I never did catch you in the morning.
All of our goodbyes were done in the darkness.
