Torch Song

[Verse 1]
Saw you in the bigger picture
Thought by now, we'd have it figured out
Go figure, I know less than I did last year
I know less than when I got here
Cigarettes were 7.50 at the deli
I was eighteen, handing over my fake ID

[Verse 2]
I went walking past the past, used to scare me
There's me all those years ago
I go back to where I went, the time that I spent
The people that I used to know
I'm a stranger in a stranger city
That much hasn’t changed; it's busy
What a pity it’s all for the sold-out show

[Bridge]
You just want to stay out late to prove you're right
Every night has its day
And tonight is the night you say

[Verse 3]
Funny to think the things that rolled off my tongue
And onto the concrete—yeah, nothing was concrete
But nothing was so sweet as a chance to fuck up
A dance in the dark, getting too drunk
Falling in love with someone so lost
Already a loss
I take a tally and add up the cost
I'm in debt to the world—no, I'm not your girl

[Outro]
I just want to stay the same to prove I’m wrong
There’s nothing left to dwell on
If you always knew it wasn't a torch song
