Eliza McLamb - Debt lyrics

You didn't care enough to end it, so I did
You almost slept through the breakup
The sound of dorm dryers in the
Basement kept your head up
I said, "I'm done washing your sheets"

You won't return my calls
About my 80 dollars
Will I get it back? Will I see you?
It's just a monetary exchange to me
If you mailed it'd be the same to me
But I hope you put it in my hands

I suppose you don't owe me
Any more than the money
But I'd trade it in an instant for a sign
I know I'm not what you wanted
But was I for a while?

I had to drag your weighted blanket
Across campus on the coldest day of March
I had to get it out from underneath my bed
Left it at the door in a tote bag
Went to buy a pack of light blue cigarettes

I walked through traffic to the tidal basin
Smoked 'til I forgot the taste of you
I know it's reductive but it's true
I'm not trying to be cool about it
I wasted all that energy on you

I suppose you don't owe me
Any more than the money
But I'd trade it in an
Instant for all my time
I know you're not what I need
But I thought you were for a while
