We used to sit shoulder to shoulder
I used to put my feet up on the velvet
We used to sing all of the verses
I used to write what you said in my notebook
There's a joke about The Goldfinch
I never finished, and Matty's climbing in the back
There's a note about the wrong things and who gets shelter
The congregation's starting to crack
When you said I was
When you said I was
We used to play Suf before sunrise
I used to know which of the keys stuck
We used to stand easy in circles
I used to think I could convince you
There's a point about privilege
But you won't take it, and Jessi says I'll know when to leave
Disappointed in the right things, the front door's making
A growl that sounds like grief
When you said I was
When you said I was
And we're throwing the cornerstones into the river
We're building up the banks
And we're feeding the shoring fires with our old bulletins
We're editing the blanks
When you said I was
When you said I was
When you said I was brave you meant wrong
But I know right, that ain't right
When you said I was brave you meant wrong
But I know right, that ain't right
I know right, and that ain't right
And we're throwing the cornerstones into the river
We're building up the banks
And we're feeding the shoring fires with our old bulletins
We're editing the blanks
When you said I was
I know right, that ain't right
When you said I was
I know right, that ain't right
When you said I was
You know right, so goddamn do right
When you said I was
I know right
