BBagels in cardboard boxes

Northern suburb street parking

Grocery that's vacant at 8 a.m. on a Monday morning
BHot coffee, heavy eyes

AirPods and open skies

Converse and creek trails and coming to realise
BAs I walk and tread and trample

Through the trees, mud on my ankles

There's no emotion along this path that I cannot handle
BWoollen coats, oversized, each thought I analyse

Cold to the point where you see it before you when you sigh

BDress-ups and dinner parties

Backyards and sunburned bodies

James Taylor vinyls and pot plants and putting off your studies
BCheeseboards and blow-up pools, feminist articles

Boyfriends and tattoos, and scented expensive candles
BLong roads and rugged coastlines

D&Ms over a white wine

Sleep-ins and beach trips and losing myself in my mind

BBirdwatching turning tide

Tea towels and dishes dried

Siblings suppressing laughter

Parents don't know why we try
BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge and-
BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on
N.C.
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
BFront desks and boarding passes

Wheels-up, 12 hours 'til landing

Sunlight that cuts like a knife through the clouds into the cabin
BBring your book to the park, pub feed before it's dark

Silk skirts and stories of coworkers' rude remarks
BDowntown breakfast at a diner

It's how you walk through the fire

There ain't a stranger in sight that I don't somewhat admire
BMuseum self-guided tours, music is mine and it's yours
N.C.
Whole to the point where you cannot imagine needing more
BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge and-

BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on
Treat it like it's gonna be fisgone
fisKitchen choreographed dances
CSweet talk and second chances
BKissed right below your eyes
BSwear not to take this night for granted

fisSing at the top of your lungs
CDare to try everything once
GIt only takes looking aroBund to know you've already wonB 
BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge and-

BBreathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on
Treat it like it's gonna be Bgone
Treat it like it's gonna be Bgone
Treat it like it's gonna be Bgone
N.C.
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
