If You Have to Ask, You'll Never Know

from Manic. by I Swallow Ghosts

lyrics

What an appropriate time to check your phone
Right in the midst of me trying to tell you I’m not ok
I’m sure you’ll gaslight the way

What an appropriate time to bring this up
We’re both drunk as fuck and you’re friends are gathered around to hear
All about my deficiencies

Most likely I’ll say “I’m sorry”

Throw out your decency and make me believe
That this last time is the last time that you’ll ever fucking hurt me
I’m sure I make this too easy

Wrap your words right around my neck
The most common way for you to take my breath
Is so closely related to violence

And most likely I’ll say “thank you”
And most likely you’ll say nothing at all

What an appropriate time to check your phone
Right when I’ve worked up the courage to tell you I’m leaving
Your eyes get wide then sad

And most likely I’ll say “I’m sorry”
And most likely you’ll say that you “love” me
