Exception

Exception

Why can't I end it in confession?


[Verse 1]

My halloween costume is still on the floor

If I pick it up then I have to move on

It didn't matter that it was my birthday

Everyone leaves but yours takes the whole cake

I put on your sweatshirt, I realized it's ugly

Another thing you loved taking right from me

So I blow out the candles, I'm always the victim

It's not your fault, that's how I've rigged the system


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm still trying to make it make sense

It sounds wrong putting us in the past tense

How can I weaponize all your love?

How do I point the finger when no one's wrong?


[Chorus]

What are the odds you're a lesson

What's patience if I don't get tested?

I've never moved on, maybe ever

I wonder if you're the exception

Exception

I'm learning lessons

I'm second guessing

I'm redirecting these loose ends, confessing

How am I always too much and too little?

I tried so hard to stay right in the middle

Why did we bother with planning to be here?

Both knowing we wouldn't make it to New Year's


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm still trying to make it make sense

It sounds wrong putting us in the past tense

How can I weaponize all your love?

How do I point the finger when no one's wrong?


[Chorus]

What are the odds you're a lesson

What's patience if I don't get tested?

I've never moved on, maybe ever

I wonder if you're the exception

Exception

I'm learning lessons

I'm second guessing

I'm redirecting these loose ends, confessing

I can't be present

I'm moving reckless

You're getting tired, I know I'm a mess
