Arlo Parks For Violet
[Verse 1]
Couldn't always come to mine when your dad got angry
So I'd play Nujabes down the phone for you to hear
I could picture terror swirling in your iris
You would say, "I cannot bear this, get me out of here"
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait, you know when college starts again you'll manage
Wait, you know that I'll be there to kiss the damage
Wait, you know I bought a couple books I think you'd like
Just hold on for tonight
[Chorus]
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
It feels like nothing's changing
[Verse 2]
Oleander bushes flourish in your garden
I come round for pancakes
And we'd stretch under the leaves
He would always act so sarcastically charming
Wonder if he realized how much he hurt his kids
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait, you know when college starts again you'll manage
Wait, you know that I'll be there to kiss the damage
Wait, you know I bought a couple books I think you'll like
So hold on for tonight
[Chorus]
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
And I can't do this, can't do this
It feels like nothing's changing
It feels like nothing's changing
[Outro]
Can't do this
Can't do this
