Direct Address Lyrics - Lucy Dacus

You know it's unfair that I am here and you are there. 

I feel short in the exchange- I show you mine you walk away. 

I'm wearing mine out on my sleeve, you're wearing yours where I can't see, 

but I'll remember your face for years to come 

and wonder what you thought about when you got home. 

Honestly is like a kiss on the lips. 

Come closer and I'll tell you exactly how it is. 

Now I'm barely breathing, I'm moving ahead, 

but if I see you smile, it's gonna knock me dead.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I'm stiff in my tracks trying to recover 

from whatever drug you used to put me under. 

I don't believe in love at first sight. 

I don't believe in love at first sight. 

It's hard enough for me to not fall in love with every person I see. 

I let my mind get turned inside out 

just to see what the kids were laughing about. 

It wasn't worth understanding something 

I could've gone my whole life not knowing. 

You know what they say about curiosity. 

That murderer had his chokehold on me. 

I ran away without looking back, 

but every now and then I want what I can't have. 

I'm still thinking of a man from years ago- 

eyes open wide in the front row, 

dark features, leaning on the doorframe. 

I would've sold my soul to know his first name.

I don't believe in love at first sight. 

I don't believe in love at first sight. 

I don't believe in love at first sight. 

Maybe I would if you looked at me right.
