Single Mothers – Half-Lit lyrics

That night I fell into the pharmacy
I thought I was in a lucid dream
Sunburnt and said
"Anything that you could ever need
I'll just think real hard about, and they'll give it to me"

Jumped over the counter
A phone rang and I yelled
"Don't you fucking answer"
Your hair was all matted
You looked so fantastic
In those sweatpants
That fabric felt so romantic

With all the drugs you could imagine
Think of all the parties we could make happen

Turns out these clouds were hanging on strings
So let's get high and cut them down
And watch them fall on everything
Listen, there's nothing that I can't do
I've tried and I just can't lose

So sharp
So smart
So serrated
Turned your attention into amazement
On your couch undoing each other's buttons
Dentyne breath and turning stomachs

With all the drugs you could imagine
Think of all the parties we could make happen

I was blacked out in the basement
Like a soft pillow on hard pavement
Humming a slow song
Of stray dogs and car alarms

Now I'm half-lit
Knocking on your door
Could have sworn
I'd been here before

What will you do now?
They've cut me off
Are you better off?
Only time will tell

What will you do now?
They've cut me off
Are you better off?
Only time will tell
I'm half-lit
Connected
A magnet
I'm stagnant
