I left your guitar in pieces on the floor in the corner of a house across town.
And I don't give a damn anymore what it takes to make you happy in a true love you've found.
One thing I've learned, I can only credit to you,
it seems like one day I'm the hero, the next no better than a fool.
Now I'll stop wasting my time thinking you're the one love I'll lose.
You're different from the rest, indeed I must've been blessed to be able to see you walk out that door.
Those months of stress you caused me, I just began inhaling,
and look, you found a way to hate me more.
One thing I've learned, I can only credit to her.
No matter how hard you fight she'll take the best parts from you.
One day I'm the hero, the next no better than a fool.
You say you don't need me. I'm sorry we can't agree on one simple thing.
But see if from my perspective, your actions were quite reckless,
and I didn't have a moment to think.
One thing I've learned, I can only credit to her.
No matter how hard you fight she'll take the best parts from you.

Intimate pop; Bollinger's vocals sound almost confidential as she muses on relationship neuroses over woozy, breezy instrumentation. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 18, 2019
