Courtside Betty - Shower Lyrics

I checked my phone for the tenth time since you rang
Seven minutes ago you were saying you forgot something
Important when you packed your suitcase
I can't remember what it was - your laptop charger or a brush
You said you'll pick it up when I'm not at home
I said "I miss you" and you hung up the phone
I guess that's fair, that's not what I meant to declare
I used to be so composed but now when I'm on my own
I don't know who I am
When I'm alone I find my head's in the sand
It's a curious perspective, upside down with no direction
It's not my preference but I'll take what I can

'Cause I don't want to be someone who always needs to be in love
To get me out of my shell
I'm staring at the shower head forgetting where I am again
And now I'm wrinkled as hell

When you're not here I lose all concept of time
It's been two hours and I still can't decide
If I'm depressed or uninspired, am I hungry or just tired
If I don't get out of the house I might die
And I've been staring at the clock while I shave
And I'm imaging your hands on my face
Is that romantic or pathetic, can I blame it on genetics
Should I be looking for a new place to stay?

'Cause I don't want to be the guy who needs somebody by his side
I'm doing fine on my own
The lights are out, the blinds are closed, I'm lying on the couch alone
And I've got nowhere to go

So I writes songs to detach
From these feelings that I don't want to last
With little jokes to hide the fact
That I'm not loosening my grip on the past
Yeah, I writes songs to detach
From these feelings that I don't want to last
With little jokes to hide the fact
That I'm not loosening my grip on the past

'Cause I don't want to be someone who always needs to be in love
To get me out of my shell
I'm staring at the shower head forgetting where I am again
And now I'm wrinkled as hell
And I don't want to be the guy who needs somebody by his side
I'm doing fine on my own
The lights are out, the blinds are closed, I'm lying on the couch alone
And I've got nowhere to go
