Square (Retired from Sad, New Career in Business 2013)

Текст песни Mitski - Square (Retired from Sad, New Career in Business 2013)

[Verse 1]
Your room was square
I once noticed from there
In your bed, as you slept
And I held my breath
Everything had its own place
And I wondered what space would I take
In the order you kept

[Verse 2]
I tried to eat like your girlfriend
Just tea, in the night I'd end up
Too hungry to sleep
So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside
I would find
It's for you won't be mine

[Chorus 1]
I tried my hardest, for I'd never learned
God's very simple and love shouldn't burn
And I would've offered you all that you yearned for
But I was still waiting for something to earn

[Verse 3]
What is that quiet of snow in the night?
The dark rings with white noise
As you stand and drown
Maybe it's all of these snowflakes, screaming
A choir of mute
As they brace for the ground
[Verse 4]
Well, that's my ride
Hope you had a good night
You know, you made me happy
Here, shake my hand
You make such a good man
Never once did you know me

[Chorus 2]
I tried my hardest, for how do you learn
God's very simple and love doesn't burn
And maybe you'd offered me all that I yearned for
But I was still waiting for something to earn

[Outro]
Silly me, waiting
