about

This track was mixed to be played loud so turn it up.

lyrics

A box in the attic has dropped my jaw
A decade of static
Now I'm craving more
But it's time to remind myself I'm happy now
I don't need to define myself
With letting you down

Don't leave me out
I don't deserve this
We both agreed
Practice makes perfect

Pages and pages of "I love you more"
Gathering dust on this forgotten floor
Your picture's been cut out
Happy birthday to you
A scrapbook for Christmas and a bid adieu

You're trading me in
For a newer model
Undented exterior
More responsive steering

It makes no sense to own a flash car if you can't even drive it
Perfect your technique in a ten-year-old coupe with a scratched windscreen
Every asset depreciates, even one's spouse
Just don't come crawling back when that girl sees what you are
My practice wife
You were a practice wife

So what are you thinking now that I'm sinking?
Was I only just a stone to be stepped on?
I saw my replacement
Perky and regal
Please don't corrupt her
She's barely legal
