Play It Safe - Appleton Lyrics

Progress for you is so indefinable
You say your heart is made of stone
Though I've seen it crumble
Every Sunday night like a ritual
Habitual habits
Used to wear you down
But you don't share no more

I told myself today
That things would be different
But just end up laying alone in the darkness
For hours on end
Without any purpose
Imagining all the things I could be doing

Like maybe get a f*cking grip
I've tried so f*cking hard not to let this slip
And after all the years that we've made this fit
It's just so disappointing to see you quit
And I know it's always been an issue
I know you're just someone I think I once knew
But the truth is I spend most of my time wishing I was somewhere else

Jealously is an ugly shade on you my friend
If I can even call you that lately
Seems to be more enemies to me
You're a shade darker than anyone I know
The glass is perpetually empty when it comes to me
Your heart shrinks to half the size it could be
I don't get why you hate me

I told myself this year that things would be different
I'd challenge the fact that we've both grown distant
Maybe in some way I'd change your perspective
But all that you've said is that I'm hard to live with

So maybe get a f*cking grip
And try to understand why I do this shit
Cause the truth is I spend most of my time
Wishing I was somewhere else

Every Sunday night
Like a ritual
Habitual Habits used to wear you down
But you don't share no more
Every Sunday night like a ritual
Habitual Habits used to wear you down
But you don't share no more

Keeping the peace doesn't do well by me
Cause I gave up all my security
And nothing's left to show the mark
Of accidents we've had
But a cracked front door and a key that you gave back
