Read the Room

lyrics

The first time I drove was to pick up my brother from the library
because you had been drinking and Tyler was waiting

I remember you flirting with all of the servers and the female clerks
yeah you could make them giggle
while you sent back your dinner

And I’d be so embarrassed
that you couldn’t hold it together
Read the room
Read the room

You drove us to the woods to take turns shooting at our garbage
Yeah, we were so careful
that one of us is deaf in one ear

you told us lots of truth
but you loved a good story
like how we might be royalty
just wait till your 18th birthday

And I’d be so embarrassed
if my words were causing damage
Read the room
Read the room
Read the room
Read the room

the last time that we spoke
didn’t know you had days left
almost automatic
I love you’s almost habit
was planning when I’d see you next
at the airport or a hospital
but we didn’t get there
and I didn’t get to share

my time
with you
watching grey days
grow blue
watching your soul grow back
petting my dog on your lap
hearing your laugh
being my dad
