better company: lyrics
- The pasta water’s bubbling on the stove,
- I’m dancing in the socks you always hated.
- The tea towels have a floral motif now,
- It’s funny how much space I’ve reclaimed.
- I used to check the clock when you were late,
- And keep the volume low to help you think.
- But now the speakers shake the spice rack,
- And I don’t even care about the sink.
- Turns out I’m better company,
- Just me, the fridge, and my own melody.
- I’m not waiting for a text or a sign,
- I’m having such a damn good time.
- Yeah, I’m better company,
- Than you could ever be.
- Better company,
- Just me.
- I bought those lemons that you said were sour,
- And squeezed them in a glass just for the sting.
- There’s no one here to tell me I’m too loud,
- Or judge the way I try to hit the high notes.
- I used to rehearse my bad news in the car,
- So I wouldn't ruin your mood at the door.
- But tonight I’m laughing at my own jokes,
- I don't need an audience anymore.
- Turns out I’m better company,
- Just me, the fridge, and my own melody.
- I’m not waiting for a text or a sign,
- I’m having such a damn good time.
- Yeah, I’m better company,
- Than you could ever be.
- Better company,
- Just me.
- It’s quiet but it isn’t lonely,
- It’s heavy but I’m standing light.
- I finally met the girl you hidden,
- And she’s staying for the night.
- Turns out I’m better company,
- Just me, the fridge, and my own melody.
- I’m not waiting for a text or a sign,
- I’m having such a damn good time.
- Yeah, I’m better company,
- Than you could ever be.
- Better company,
- Just me.
