I. Fortnight (feat Post Malone)

I was supposed to be sent away
But they forgot to
come and get me
I was a functioning alcoholic
Til nobody noticed
my new aesthetic
All of this to say
I hope you’re okay
But you’re the reason
And no one here’s to blame
But what about your
quiet treason?

And for a fortnight there
We were forever
Run into you sometimes
Ask about the weather
Now you’re in my backyard
Turned into good neighbors
Your wife waters flowers
I want to kill her.

All my mornings are Mondays
Stuck in an endless February
I took the miracle move-on drug
The effects were temporary
And I love you
It’s ruining my life
(I love you, it’s ruining my life)
I touched you
For only a fortnight
(I touched you)
But I touched you

Chorus

And for a fortnight there
We were together
Run into you sometimes
Comment on my sweater
Now you’re at the mailbox
Turned into good neighbors
My husband is cheating
I want to kill him.

I love you, it’s ruining my life
(I love you, it’s ruining my life)
I touched you for only a fortnight
(I touched you)
I touched you

I love you
It’s ruining my life
(I love you, it’s ruining my life)
I touched you for only a fortnight
(I touched you)
I touched you

Thought of calling ya
But you won’t pick up
Another fortnight lost in America
Move to Florida
Buy the car you want
But it won’t start up
Til you touch, touch, touch me

Thought of calling ya
But you won’t pick up
Another fortnight lost in America
Move to Florida
Buy the car you want
But it won’t start up
Til I touch, touch, touch you
