"Different Light" lyrics

"Different Light"

Bartender knows
I'm here alone
And I missed my train tonight
Southbound to the town I didn't pronounce right
You wanted my body but not my soul
Funny how indifference tastes a little like cherry wine
So I'll pretend I'm fine and drown it out tonight
While my mind becomes a fire
Maybe it's the way you didn't try to get me
And the way you didn't wanna kiss me but I can't let this go

And I just gotta know
Did I get too drunk and fuck it up?
You know I tend to do that
But I wouldn't have stayed the night
If I'd had known you'd start to see me
In a different light

Bartender knows
I'm far from home
And I'm getting a little tired
Of running 'round old beach towns and faking my smiles
Got so many stories I'll leave untold
Funny how potential thrives when the beholder is blind
No, I'm fine, I've become a fire
Maybe it's the way I saw it as Nirvana
Maybe it's the way I'm stuck in California
I can't let this go

And I just gotta know
Did I say too much and fuck it up?
You know I tend to do that
But no I wouldn't have stayed the night
If I'd had known you'd start to see me
In a different light

Maybe it's the way you didn't feel the same and
Maybe it's the way that you're the one to blame
Still I can't let this go

But darling, now you know
I cared too much and fucked it up
Because I tend to do that
I'm forgetting your name tonight
Cuz now I know you see me
In a different light
Now I know you see me
