lyrics

You're planting a garden in the yard your parents bought you
Handing me some sunflower seeds, but that's not what I'm here to do
I rip up your turnips in a fit of aggravation
Why do you plant roots when you don't even want them

Who gives a shit about fireworks we say as we watch them
I bought you bedside tables, and you met my dad by accident
We lit up a fat joint despite my paranoia
When you said you couldn’t love me it was an annoyance

Tear up your contracts and your expectations
You can’t be alone but I think you’ve just learned to say that
Make up your mind
Make up your mind because it’s being made up for you

You said you'd make me breakfast, but you want me to leave
So I'm crying at the art museum staring at Modiglianis
With broad strokes and longnecks, he broke all the rules
But what does it matter if you don't tell the truth?

I drive to your house because you're scared you hurt my feelings
But you don't even know you're the one you are protecting
You can lie to me all that you want
But I hope this is something you will learn from

Tear up your contracts and your expectations
You can’t be alone, but I think you’ve just learned to say that
Make up your mind
Make up your mind because it’s being made up for you

I was hoping you’d be nice to me for the rest of July
I was hoping you’d be nice to me for the rest of July
I was hoping you’d be nice to me for the rest of July
I was hoping you’d be nice to me for the rest of July

Tear up your contracts and your expectations
You can’t be alone but I think you’ve just learned to say that
Make up your mind
Make up your mind
Make up your mind
