I’m No Good With Forever

[Verse 1] I’ve signed a thousand T-shirts Forgot a thousand names Woke up in the wrong towns Blamed it on the fame My suitcase was my best friend My phone was how I prayed To anyone who liked me Then quietly slipped away [Pre-Chorus] I was good at leaving early Good at never calling back You walked in Laughed at my stories Now my old tricks feel like cracks [Chorus] I’m no good with forever I’m all right with tonight I’ve only practiced goodbyes In the back of a cab Under flickering lights But you’re folding your legs on my sweater Making Sunday sound like a prayer I’m no good with forever But I want it I swear (with you, with you) [Verse 2] You stack your books on my amp Your toothbrush by my sink You hum along to my demos Then tell me what you think You circle dates on my calendar And joke about our “tour” I laugh it off Change the subject While wanting something more [Pre-Chorus] ’Cause I break things when I hold them Drop the good ones out of fear You say “Baby I’m not fragile” But my heart’s loud in my ears [Chorus] I’m no good with forever I’m all right with tonight I’ve only practiced goodbyes In the back of a cab Under flickering lights But you’re barefoot Dancing in my sweater Singing wrong words Don’t even care I’m no good with forever But I want it I swear (with you, with you) [Bridge] What if I miss your birthday? What if I choke on vows? What if I’m gone for three months And you stop saying you’re proud? What if my songs get bigger And I shrink in my own skin? Would you still save me a corner On your couch Let me back in? [Chorus] ’Cause I’m no good with forever I’m all right with tonight But I’d trade every green room For your porch light left on at midnight You’re asleep in my old sweater Drooling on the sleeve Don’t care I’m no good with forever But I want it I swear I’m no good with forever Please teach me I’m scared (’cause I want it, I want it) With you I swear
