This song is about a relationship I had with someone where we both had broken hearts from our previous relationships and we used each other to kind of cope with our heartache. would not recommend, it doesn't really help, it actually makes it more difficult.

lyrics

right next to the station
a mental health parking lot
golden mercury sable
with an engine I'm still working on
she pulled up confused just like me
poured out everything on the front seat
spits nonsense from her mouth
somehow still so convincing

we pretend that we feel something
we pretend that we don't care

we're hurting at the moment
that's why we both lie
to make the past unimportant
if only for a while

can love feel unnatural?
should we try it again?
say goodbye without hesitation
even though it doesn't feel like that right skin
