SOAPBOX LYRICS

half half and half and half oat milk
what a wordy combination
you confused that poor barista
right before you got impatient
i watched her eyes well up as she rang you up
and avoided confrontation
but you didn’t even notice
you just carried on your conversation

i brought it up in the car
and i was berated
for looking too far into the situation

but what the hell do I know?
guess i’m living life with my eyes closed
you see nothing wrong from your pedestal
yeah you should know
that someone set the bar too low

I hate to have to be the one who has to let you know
that you’re an asshole

my first mistake was my last one
was I in love or just compliant
that house you live in’s a glass one
and you’ve been spending too much time inside it
I kept it quiet
I let you down
you ran a tight ship
you let me drown

if you’re gonna hide from your past
you’re gonna need a mask
and i know you don’t believe in that

but what the hell do I know?
guess i’m living life with my eyes closed
you see nothing wrong from your pedestal
yeah you should know
that someone set the bar too low

I hate to have to be the one who has to let you know
that you’re an asshole

you don’t got a leg to stand on
but there you are on your soapbox
you don’t got a leg to stand on
so what you doin’ on a soapbox

you don’t got a leg to stand on
up there on your soapbox
you don’t got a leg to stand on
so what you doin’ on a soapbox

but what the hell do I know?
guess i’m living life with my eyes closed
you see nothing wrong from your pedestal
yeah you should know
that someone set the bar too low

I hate to have to be the one who has to let you know
that you’re an asshole
I hate to have to be the one who has to let you know
that you’re an asshole
