I got a paper cup And a bus that runs too late I watch the rain make shapes On the corner of your gate You said, “don’t make a thing” So I kept it in my coat Now my hands are full of night And a receipt I never wrote I’m fine I’m fine That’s the line That I wear After rain checks I still show up After rain checks I don’t say much After rain checks You know my name After rain checks I play the same The screen goes black again My phone is face-down still The kettle clicks once in the hall Like it knows how I feel I leave a chair unpulled I leave the message read I keep the small talk safe And the bigger words in bed I’m fine I’m fine That’s the line That I wear After rain checks I stand right up After rain checks I've seen too much After rain checks You hold my name After rain checks I break the game If I look bored, I’m not I’m just trying not to shine Keeping all my exits In a tidy little line After rain checks I still show up After rain checks I don’t say much After rain checks You know my name After rain checks I play the same
