Bloodoath (ft Petey)

Names carved in the pavement
On the corner of the block where we all came from
When we were water bottle boozing in your basement
Older sisters always hate it when we blame them

Closet full of sweaters
From the 90s, when our folks were still together
Yeah, love is blinded by the pressure of forever
We made a bloodoath, said we swore we’d do it better

Maybe it was wrong to say
We would always stay this way
And I hated you for walking away
When, honestly, I’d do the same
And we weren’t always telling lies
Life’s just a series of goodbyes

Time is less forgiving
And I’m ungrateful sitting down for two Thanksgivings
Yeah, we were planning on escaping, going missing
Wake up older in a loft in New York City

I found a folded letter
Dad was writing to my mom when he first met her
Yeah, love is blinded by the pressure of forever
We made a bloodoath, said we swore we’d do it better

Maybe it was wrong to say
We would always stay this way
And I hated you for walking away
When, honestly, I’d do the same
And we weren’t always telling lies
Life’s just a series of goodbyes

We were never enough
We were never in love
We were never enough
We were never in love

We made a bloodoath, said we swore we’d do it better
