Plastic City - Ellie Rose

The darkest of hair with the bluest of eyes

The pinkies of lips told the whitest of lies

Now I’m replaying 3am, dancing in your bedroom

Thinking in my head, I’ve been smiling like a cartoon

Drumming through the night, playing our songs

Singing every line, and drumming with your palms

And I’ve been thinking

Maybe, You didn’t mean to hurt me

And maybe we were just not good

I’ve tried to get you out of my system

Everybody says I should

You moved out to a plastic city

Thought you could leave it all behind

But everyday I’m walking down on the streets

That bring you to the front of my mind

And everyone that know us

Knows all we need

Is a little bit of closure

The shortest of tempers

The tallest of heights

The happiest weeks to the saddest of drives

Now I’m replaying all of March, falling through your front door

But this is where it starts, you kissed me on the first floor

Things went wrong, but still in my head I’m carried in your arms,

Your playing in my hair

And I’ve been thinking

Maybe, You didn’t mean to hurt me

And maybe we were just not good

I’ve tried to get you out of my system

Everybody says I should

You moved out to a plastic city

Thought you could leave it all behind

But everyday I’m walking down on the streets

That bring you to the front of my mind

And everyone who knows us

Knows that all we need

Is a little bit of —

As our love just burns

But I’m waiting my turn

You may have moved on first

But I’ll find someone who loves me

Honey, You were cruel and

But whatever you do

I’ll try to move on too

And when you called me on my birthday

Saying

Maybe, I didn’t mean to hurt me

Boys like me are Just not good

I’ve tried to get you out of my system

My new girlfriend wishes I would

I’m calling you because it’s your birthday

I’ve watched you grow up so fine

And everyday I’m looking at pictures

Forgetting that you’re not still mine

And everyone that knows me

Said that I should call you

All that we need

Is a little bit of closure
