Too Much (The Diner Song)

[Intro]
[Verse]
Window screen pops out slow
Parents sleeping down below
Sneakers hitting damp grass
Watch the suburban minutes pass
I’m a ghost on the street
With a heart skip-skipping a beat
[Pre-Chorus]
Got your notes in my pocket
Worn out like a locket
I’m shaking but I’m ready
Keep my breathing steady
[Chorus]
You said I was way too much
Like I’m poison to the touch
But you’re the one who ran away
While I’m the one who chose to stay
Yeah I’m loud and I’m a mess
But you’re a coward I confess!
[Post-Chorus]
Too much for you
Too much for you
Yeah you know it’s true
[Verse]
Chipped neon flickers blue
In this booth across from you
Coffee’s bitter just like us
Throwing sparks beneath the bus
You look tired you look small
Like you never cared at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Crumpled paper in my hand
Things you’ll never understand
I’m shaking but I’m ready
Keep my breathing steady
[Chorus]
You said I was way too much
Like I’m poison to the touch
But you’re the one who ran away
While I’m the one who chose to stay
Yeah I’m loud and I’m a mess
But you’re a coward I confess!
[Bridge]
Strike a match in the dark
Watch the orange start to spark
Polaroids turn into ash
Like our little summer crash
Scream until my lungs are black
Cause I’m never coming back!
I’M NEVER COMING BACK!
[Solo]
[Chorus]
You said I was way too much
Like I’m poison to the touch
But you’re the one who ran away
While I’m the one who chose to stay
Yeah I’m loud and I’m a mess
But you’re a coward I confess!
[Post-Chorus]
Too much for you
Too much for you
Yeah you know it’s true
I’m too much for you!
[Break]
[Verse]
Walk out to the parking lot
Give you everything I’ve got
Which is nothing but the smoke
From the promises you broke
I’m seventeen and I’m alive
And I’m the one who will survive
[Outro]
