Testo Are You Okay?

You look older than I remember
And I guess that some of that well may be my fault
And I can’t quite figure out what you felt I'd been all this (?)
Or if that won’t even matter much at all
Disillusion, there’s no angels who thought their wings were permanent
In seclusion you were faithful or at least hid your finer print
How dumb I was in hindsight to think that I could really know
Much of anything about anything though
And does being in the Los Angeles bring me to mind?
And does wine and Billie Holiday still make you cry?
When you call is it to open up a door to better days?
Or is it simple as the way you wanna say
“Are you okay?”

An empty cup can’t fill another
Why did that take us so long to figure out?
There were sides of you where I swore "I could love her"
But the love takes so much more than knowing how
And I’m still in that apartment where we were big kids playing house
Where we bought the cups and curtains to entertain settling down
And I kept some of our pictures and I wear my birthday watch
To remind me of the man that I'm not
Does your new boyfriend know how much I still mean to you?
Do you change some other details for more convenient truth?
Can he translate how you hold his hand into levels of your pain?
Does he know to ask despite what you may say?
Are you okay?

You’re a child on an airplane, you fear what’s out of your control
And you love New York 'cause it was somewhere else for you to go
And you dyed your hair so you could look your mirror in the eyes
And pretend she’s someone you don’t recognize

So it’s time to lose my number and let the past be where we stay
When you’ve had too much to drink again someone else can hold your waist
We were never quite as good as how your memory replays
And I don’t owe you no answer when you say
“Are you okay?”
“Are you okay? ”
