Over Another

You found me on the bathroom floor

Phone lit up with his old name

You laughed and said

"I've been there too"

Pulled me up and killed the shame

We talked all night in plastic chairs

Outside that closing corner bar

You traced the cracks inside my plans

Like you were reading tarot cards

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

Holding each other while we heal someone else

If I'm just a bridge that leads you back to your lover

Why does it feel like the real thing

And nothing else?

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

‘Cause I don't wanna get over you myself

Your hoodie on my bedroom chair

Still smells like your cigarette

You say his name then bite your lip

Then say

"Forget I ever said"

We laugh it off

We turn out lights

But truth keeps buzzing in my head

You fit my scars like borrowed clothes

I fear the day you give them back instead

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

Holding each other while we heal someone else

If I'm just a bridge that leads you back to your lover

Why does it feel like the real thing

And nothing else?

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

‘Cause I don't wanna get over you myself

Promise me one honest thing (just one)

If you leave when you can stand

Tell me I was more than medicine

Not just a name you held like a spare hand

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

Holding each other while we heal someone else

If I'm just a bridge that leads you back to your lover

Why does it hurt like the first time I ever fell?

Are we just a love that gets you over another?

‘Cause I don't wanna get over you myself
