Staircase Wit

The feeling starts to sink in
 But it's beginning to rust
 Still hanging on to the things that we discussed
 But the point that was made isn't said and done
 Now the sun shines so bright, but it won't shine for you
 You remind me of rain in July
 And the gloom that I felt for a year
 And the clouds are always shaped just like you
 But there's a parting light
 I always told you that someday
 I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way
 You always laughed in my face
 And made the world seem so grey
 Lay in the bed that you made
 So I can finally say that I'm fine
 You can just say "whatever"
 I won't change my mind 'cause I know that I'm better off
 But I am cursed with a staircase wit
 Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
 Don't judge me on my bad habits
 I could pick out every flaw of yours
 And unearth all your imperfections
 Beneath the surface, I have seen
 The ugly truth behind the beauty queen
 I always told you that someday
 I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way
 You always laughed in my face
 And made the world seem so grey
 Lay in the bed that you made
 So I can finally say that I'm fine
 You can just say "whatever"
 I won't change my mind 'cause I know that I'm better off
 But I am cursed with a staircase wit
 Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
 ♪
 Held it back, lost the nerve
 Was too scared to talk when you gave me your hand
 And you gave me your heart
 When you should have kept it to yourself
 
 You should have kept it to yourself
 I wish you'd kept it to yourself
