about

The first single from the forthcoming album, Long Fuse Burning, due out in August 2019.

lyrics

When I met you we both said we were bad people
I remember thinking one of us was right
There’s another empty bar where I can meet you
We never did know how to end a night
Now the lights are coming on, there’s another room til dawn
I’ve seen it all before but I don’t mind

Call me your dirty little secret
Name a time, tell me where
Break it down, before you break it
Better still, remind me why I’m here

When I met you we both felt like we were drowning
I remember learning quickly how to swim
I was never very good at sleeping sober
Or waiting for the light to come back in

Call me your dirty little secret
Name a time, tell me where
Break it down, before you break it
Better still, remind me why I’m here

In a year or two or ten
We’ll look back on these again
Tell each other and ourselves we’re doing fine
But do you ever miss those days,
Bad decisions we both made
I might, but not enough cross the line

Now the lights are coming on outside of Austin
And I'm cleaner than the stories I could share
I’m glad I could convince you it meant nothing
In time for me to realize I care

Call me your dirty little secret
Name a time, tell me where
Break it down, before you break it
Better still, remind me why I’m here
