Lyrics Contrast And Compare - Companion Version - Bright Eyes , Waxahatchee

Contrast and compare
Between the busy ones and the ones that don't care
Until there is no one that you really know
So I drift through these days
Of appointments and promises made
They'll all end up broken and quickly replaced

Weeks are slow, days drag on
Even practice and parties seem long
But I found myself going
I guess there's nothing to do, oh well

Group of kids, line of cars
More will show up after the bars close
There's this boredom that drowns everything
Bottles break, music plays
Conversations competing for space
I look for a corner or a quieter room

There's no heat (there's no heat) in this house (in this house)
I can't breathe with these words in my mouth
But I'm not gonna say them
Yeah, I've made that mistake before

On the stairs, she grabs my arm
Says, "What's up? Where you've been? Is something wrong?"
I try to just smile
And say, "Everything's fine"
