Third Person

Third Person lyrics

Verse 1

At nine-fifteen in the mirror
She fixes one eye first
The sink has a blue ring
And a chipped mug by the soap
She says her own name like a rumor
Then looks away

Pre-Chorus

A little red light on the fan
A hallway hum through the wall
She’s almost ready to go
Almost ready to fall

Chorus

Third person
Third person
Third person, allegedly
Third person
Third person
She says it like it’s not me

Verse 2

The cab waits by the curb
Outside the laundromat glow
She tucks the key in her coat
Like it might still mean no
There’s a receipt in her pocket
From the corner store
She reads it like a warning
Then asks for more

Pre-Chorus

A little red light on the fan
A hallway hum through the wall
She’s almost ready to go
Almost ready to fall

Chorus

Third person
Third person
Third person, allegedly
Third person
Third person
She says it like it’s not me

Bridge

In the blue tile
She splits in two
One stays patient
One slips through

Chorus

Third person
Third person
Third person, allegedly
Third person
Third person
She says it like it’s not me
