Gaslight

Under the streetlight where we used to fight

You'd say I'm the problem, then kiss me goodnight

Twist the truth till it sounded polite

But every word you whispered was just a gaslight

Thought I was crazy, maybe you're right

Or maybe you're the reason I lose myself at night

You said I always forget things

But you changed your story ten times

I was tracing your words like a crime scene

Till I forgot which version was mine

I used to write it all down just to read it all back

Hoping one day the facts would stack

But they don't, do they

Under the streetlight where we used to fight

You'd say I'm the problem, then kiss me goodnight

Twist the truth till it sounded polite

But every word you whispered was just a gaslight

Thought I was crazy, maybe you're right

Or maybe you're the reason I lose myself at night

I told my friends but I softened it all

Like it was no big deal

Though you made me feel so small

Now I sit on the steps with my old coat

It still smells like your cologne

I don't miss you, cause when I was with you

I never felt more alone

I stopped talking, you didn't ask why

Just changed the subject like every time

I stayed quiet, hoping you'd try

But silence was always your favorite line

Under the streetlight where we used to fight

You'd say I'm the problem, then kiss me goodnight

Twist the truth till it sounded polite

But every word you whispered was just a gaslight

Thought I was crazy, maybe you're right

Or maybe you're the reason I lose myself at night
