Consolation Prize Lyrics by Meg Washington

There There

2014

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna say that I am all for
Whatever you say that you’re all for
I think you know that I am awful
Like that
And if you tell me that you like that
I will say I always was like that
I think you know that I would like that
Like this
[Chorus]
Why don't you tell me that you dream about me?
Why can't you tell me what's behind your eyes?
Why don't you say that you can't live without me?
Why does it feel like I'm a compromise?
[Verse 2]
And if I see you at a gallery
Or when I see you at that show
I'll say hello all kinds of casually
Like I was always gonna go
It only takes a little effort
It only takes a little time
A little madness in the method
But I'm gonna change your mind
[Chorus}
Tell me that you dream about me
And that you see me when you close your eyes
Why can't you say that you can't live without me?
And that I'm not a consolation prize?
[Bridge]
Didn't I make you feel good?
Didn't I, didn't I make you feel good?
Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I?
[Chorus]
Tell me that you dream about me
And that you see me when you close your eyes
Why don't you say that you can't live without me?
And that I'm not a consolation prize?
Tell me that you dream about me
And that you see me when you close your eyes
Go on and say that you can't live without me
And that I'm not a consolation prize
