[Verse 1]
I still think about you in October
It was this time last year you came over
Drove all the way to Pasadena
Just for some shitty frozen pizza
We fell in love on the sofa
Getting drunk, didn't care about hangovers
I'd do anything to make you happy
Thought you'd always love me
[Pre-Chorus]
Used to stay up talkin in the back of your car
Talkin 5 year plans like we'd make it that far
Every good thing ends
We just don't know when
Used to drive past houses pick the ones we would buy
Guess forever is a word that we romanticized
Every good thing ends
We just don't know when
[Chorus]
Now all we have is small talk
How's the weather, did your mom call?
When are you gonna say
That you can't stay, 'cause you gave in?
Now all we have is small talk
I wonder where we got lost
Somewhere along the way
You changed the rules you were playing
But I'd rather have small talk than nothing at all
[Verse 2]
Is there anything I can do better?
Get things back to the way that they were when I met ya
Wanna be all you ever wanted
Please don't say I'm not
[Pre-Chorus]
Used to stay up talking in the back of your car
Talkin 5 year plans like we'd make it that far
Every good thing ends
We just don't know when
Now we're strangers sleeping in the same old bed
Yeah, you turn your back and I turn my head
Every good thing ends
We just don't know when
[Chorus]
Now all we have is small talk
How's the weather, did your mom call?
When are you gonna say
That you can't stay, 'cause you gave in?
Now all we have is small talk
I wonder where we got lost
Somewhere along the way
You changed the rules you were playing
[Outro]
And I shouldn't have kept all my feelings from ruining the show
Now I'm on stage singing songs to your ghost
I love you, still strangers inside the same home
Holding on an empty hope
Sometimes I wonder if pain's all I know
'Cause I should be happy whenever you call
The longer I stay the harder the fall
And I should know better
But I'd rather have small talk than nothing at all
