"Good Books" lyrics

"Good Books"

I know that you push me away
And you got better things to be doing than making my day
And I know, I know life can be hard
But you didn't need to scream in my face when parking your dumb little car

And I gave you an ultimatum
"It's me or the weed," and you laughed in my face and
Said, "What the hell do you mean?"
And I just wanna be your favourite priority
But I'll never be, I'll never be, and

You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books, but you don't read, so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay in your good books, so next time keep that in mind

Keep that in mind
Keep that in mind
Mind, mind, mind, keep that in mind

You broke my heart and then my phone
You're passive aggressive but you can't learn a lesson you ain't been told
So that's my bad and that's my fault, and I

I gave you an ultimatum
"It's me or the weed," and you laughed in my face and
"What, what the hell do you mean?"
And I just wanna be your favourite priority
But I'll never be, I'll never be, and

You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books, but you don't read, so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay in your good books, so next time please keep that in mind

Can you keep it in, keep it in, can you keep it in your mind?
Hey, can you keep it in, can you keep it in your mind?
Keep it in, can you keep it in your mind?
Can you keep it in your mind?

And oh, you make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books, but you don't read, so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay in your good books, so next time please keep that in mind
