You Left Your Toothbrush Here

You left your toothbrush here And now it’s brushing all my tears It’s minty fresh, just like regret Still got your playlist stuck in my cassette You said: "Let’s take a little break" I said: "Like a KitKat?" (my mistake) You said: "You need to grow up, dude" I said: "I just bought Pokémon shampoo!" You left your toothbrush here! (still wet!) Right next to my hopes and unpaid internet You left your toothbrush here! (blue and pink!) And now I’m brushing sadness every time I think I tried to date a girl named Lou But I called her by your name at the drive-thru She ordered fries, I ordered doom And then I spilled ketchup on my Zoom interview They said: "What’s your greatest strength?" I said: "Well, I cry at a consistent length" They said: "We’ll call you if we care" I said: "I’ll be waiting in my blanket lair" You left your toothbrush here! (so rude!) Mocking me softly with its soft-bristle attitude You left your toothbrush here! (all alone!) I gave it a name and its own ringtone I built a shrine in the bathroom sink Lit a candle, made it think You might come back to floss and stay But the candle just burned my bills away You left your toothbrush here! (I salute!) Like a soldier of gingivitis and emotional truth You left your toothbrush here! (thanks a lot!) Now I talk to it daily - it listens. You did not. You did not!
