Backward (Voice Memo)

You sent a pretty picture Of the sunset from your window Told me write a tune about it Something sweet to soothe your sorrow But these days are weighing on me Clumsy circles like the laundry And most nights I don't even sing at all You sent a pretty picture And you told me keep on fighting Said one day you just might come out west To sit and play beside me But that duets a losing bet The saccharine taste of stale regret We made our bed in case you don't recall Ohh it didn't have to end And no, we can't be friends But if you read the story backward It ends with our first kiss The rush of muffled laughter Tequila on your lips Yeah if you read the story backward It almost just makes sense If you ignore what happens after Close your eyes and make a wish You left a hurtful letter On a bright bouquet of flowers And when I got the urge to cry I drowned it in the shower In my head I drew a picture Of good fortune in the future But I never dreamt I'd climb the hill alone I met a fortune teller On the boardwalk up in Venice She said i... i bore the trauma On my aura like a blemish I asked her for a wise word So she charged me twenty dollars And told me i should put it in a song Ohh it didn't have to end And no, we can't be friends But if you read the story backward It ends with our first kiss The rush of muffled laughter Tequila on your lips Yeah if you read the story backward It almost just makes sense If you ignore what happens after Close your eyes, make a wish Pictures fading Faces changing Tights and tarot cards Blink three times fast I fly right back To that first night at the bar Pictures blurring Time inverting Candle wax and stars Crimson clover Though it's over Ending where it starts If you read the story backward It ends with our first kiss The rush of muffled laughter Tequila on your lips Yeah if you read the story backward It almost just makes sense If you ignore what happens after Close your eyes and make a wish Close your eyes
