[Verse 1] You left your coat on the kitchen chair Like you were coming back for it I kept the kettle cold all week And called that being honest [Pre-Chorus] The hallway clock skips one white tooth Then starts pretending nothing happened [Chorus] I say I’m fine until it sounds like you I say I’m fine and make the lie come true If I don’t turn around, you’re still not gone I say I’m fine, I say it all night long [Verse 2] Your number sleeps beneath my thumb A small blue door I never enter I read the message twice, then once Until the words lose all their weather [Pre-Chorus] The neighbors drag their bins outside Morning arrives without permission [Chorus] I say I’m fine until it sounds like you I say I’m fine and make the lie come true If I don’t turn around, you’re still not gone I say I’m fine, I say it all night long [Bridge] There’s a stain beside the window From the plant we couldn’t save I water it on Sundays Just to practice being late [Final Chorus] I say I’m fine until it sounds like you I say I’m fine and make the lie come true If I don’t turn around, you’re still not gone I say I’m fine, I say it all night long [Outro] The kettle clicks The room stays dark I keep your coat I miss the mark
