[Verse 1]
We in that corner booth
lipstick on the coffee glass
You talking ’bout the week
I’m stuck on how the hours pass
Late bills in my pocket
folded like a paper plane
You laugh, say “you always got it”
I smile, tryna fake no pain
Air smells like rain and fries
you tracing circles on your phone
I say I’m fine, I lie
you hear the tremble in my tone
Bar tab doing backflips
bartender running up the score
You say “baby, we got time”
but time keeps walking out the door
[Chorus]
Got these late fee feelings
stacked up to the ceiling
Tryna stay cool, stay cool
while my heart overdrafts again
You lean in, I’m healing
from every small thing you’re revealing
In this low light, low life
you still make my head nod, my head nod
my head nod, yeah (mm)
[Verse 2]
You catch my worried eyes
call me out mid-sip
Say “you measure every moment
like receipts you never rip”
I laugh a little crooked
you straighten out my coat
Say “you don’t need a safety net
to learn to swim that hope”
Outside, taxis argue
over who gone take us home
Inside your hand is steady
like a name carved into stone
You say “let tomorrow chase us
we just walking slow tonight”
And suddenly my breathing
finally fits the size of my life
[Chorus]
Got these late fee feelings
stacked up to the ceiling
Tryna stay cool, stay cool
while my heart overdrafts again
You lean in, I’m healing
from every small thing you’re revealing
In this low light, low life
you still make my head nod, my head nod
my head nod, yeah (oh)
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m rich
every time you say my name
Maybe that’s credit
that the world can’t take away
You laugh off the numbers
I count all the ways you stayed
Yeah, I’m in debt to the day
you showed me I was already paid
