Leaning on my good leg

Cradling a beer

Trying to catch your eye

Before my carriage disappears

I ask you why they named it

The Jurassic Coast

Some guy dug up an old canoe

And thought it was dinosaur bones

I’m not a doctor but I think

You have a broken heart

I write fan fiction of life

I could write you a happier part

I wish I knew you back when

You didn’t have any friends

I know you don’t like when things change

I think it’s better than everything staying the same

You say you were a miracle

Well, I was a mistake

You ask if there’s a difference

Yeah, one makes you ashamed

You grew up in the country

Spent lots of time alone

Playing cards with Helen

In the convalescent home

You saved up all your money

To buy your first guitar

Moved a couple hours north

To study modern art

I wish I knew you back then

I think we would’ve been friends

Do you think that you would feel good

If I wasn’t always saying you should

Somebody used to love me

I ran away from it

Sometimes I think it was the happiest

I’ve ever been

It took me a minute

But I landed on my feet

Got a second chance at

The nightmare of my dreams
