Star Treatment

[Verse 1]
If I was born here
I’d probably leave
But it’s the distance from you
That does it for me
If I get lost here
Don’t rescue me
Overly sensitive
But the first one to show my teeth

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m at a karaoke bar in a different town
My posters on the bathroom stalls with graffiti
After the show you start
Swinging me around to
An 80’s song sung by a look-alike Bon Jovi
I just got off the stage
Bartender never saw my face
For the hour forty-five I played
Yeah, I love the star treatment
He said, "You were made for leaving"
Back then I didn’t see it
What a perfect evening

[Chorus]
You’re not in the room
But it still feels like you in the way
Downing G and T’s
Like it’s novacaine
And we can’t feel anything

[Verse 2]
You never shut your mouth
So it was bound to get back to me
Yeah
You sell me out

[Chorus]
It feels way too soon
To be here without you in the way
Downing G and T’s
Like it’s novacaine
And we can’t feel anything

[Bridge]
Was I too emotional?
Didn’t want it to show
Do you want me to go now?
Did I bare my soul
To another fucking asshole?

[Chorus]
You’re not in the room (You're not in the room)
But it still feels like you in the way
Downing G and T’s
Like it’s novacaine
And we can’t feel anything
