Improvement Lyrics by Daphne Eckman

2024

[Verse 1]
Is it enough to say I'm sorry?
'Cause I don't have the energy to dissect all parts of me
I said I didn't like the way he drank 'til he got angry
Making snide remarks until his friends got him home safely

And now I'm drinking something pink and crinkling my eyelids
All my friends are talking 'bout their weekend in the islands
I'm watching them, just bubbling, and I'm overanalyzing
What the hell is wrong with me
If they could see what I could see
They'd know I don't mean anything I say

[Pre-Chorus]
I just want you and me to be okay
A pendulum that's swinging just one way
Blame it on where my natal moon was placed
Do I make you want to drivе me away?

[Chorus]
I'm not moving
Until you tell me what wеnt wrong
If I'm improving
I never thought that it would take so
Long

[Verse 2]
I'm good at holding secret grudges
Apologizing on the phone, forgetting next to nothing
At some point something shifted and it's me that's up to something
I don't like when you're mad at me
And I think you probably should not be
But now it's my fault that we're not okay

[Pre-Chorus]
A pendulum that's swinging just one way
If I'm a baby, please don't throw it in my face
And I hate you, but I hate that you're in pain
I can see how all this would drive you away

[Chorus]
I'm not moving
Until you tell me what went wrong
If I'm improving
Then why'd it have to take so goddamn long?

I've been stewing
Like a cynic that can't see her own mistakes
I'm not losing
But is it winning to refuse to accept my fate?
Accept my fate
Ooh, oh

[Bridge]
Oh, now I'm growing up
Now I'm an adult like you
Now we're getting somewhere
And now I have a fool-proof excuse
To go back to your place
Throwing up on my shoes
I won't accept that it's over
In fact, I fucking refuse
So

[Outro]
Is it enough to say I'm sorry?
