Same Room - JP Saxe

I watched a TED Talk on heartbreak

He had a smart person accent

He said, «Don't look through the photos»

And then I looked through our photos

You came to Portugal in 2014

Just to spend a couple days with me

You flew halfway 'round the world for me

Now we can’t even be in the same room

My friends are making sure I don’t see you

I strategize a path to the bathroom

So I don’t walk past you

You leave before the concert is finished

It’s probably for the best that you didn’t

Make us try to fake our way through

«Hey, how are you?»

We can’t even be in the same room

We can’t even be in the same room

I swear I’m knocking out the next guy

Who says, «At least you’ll get some breakup songs»

'Cause it ain’t nearly been enough time

Oh, to hell with all your silver linings

And I’m tempted to distract myself

I’m trying not to

'Cause I’ll make myself feel all of this

It’s all that I got left of you

We can’t even be in the same room

My friends are making sure I don’t see you

I strategize a path to the bathroom

So I don’t walk past you

You leave before the concert is finished

It’s probably for the best that you didn’t

Make us try to fake our way through

«Hey, how are you?»

We can’t even be in the same room

We can’t even be in the same room

It’s hard to summarize three years

More like four years

Depends where you start counting

It don’t matter

Everyone wants an explanation

And I don’t know what to say anymore

I just don’t know what to say anymore

When we can’t even be in the same room

My friends are making sure I don’t see you

I strategize a path to the bathroom

So I don’t walk past you

You leave before the concert is finished

It’s probably for the best that you didn’t

Make us try to fake our way through

«Hey, how are you?»

We can’t even be in the same room

We can’t even be in the same room
