No Penalty Lyrics

The beer is heady

And the streets are poorly lit

Shades of pink

Surround the dark corner I sit

The room's unsteady

God, I feel like such a hypocrite

Left the party early

I doubt you noticed it

Why doesn't my absence bother you?

You say you wanna talk

But you, you never do

And I'm still there, I'm still in it

Hate all the power you hold

You're unaware, so complicit

It's out of my control

I deserved a kinder goodbye

I didn't know that would be the last time we ever spoke

Now it's been months

There's still

So much I don't know

I wonder why

I get no apology

And everyone seems to forget about me

You move along

No penalty

The plot would thicken

Everyday brought something more

Withheld details made the story all the worse

I just don't get it

We start so well, then we fall apart

My body aches

And I wish we could restart

Why doesn't my absence bother you?

You say you wanna talk

But you, you never do

And I'm still there, I'm still in it

Hate all the power you hold

You're unaware, so complicit

It's out of my control

I deserved a kinder goodbye

I didn't know that would be the last time we ever spoke

Now it's been months

There's still

So much I don't know

I wonder why

I get no apology

And everyone seems to forget about me

You move along

I guess it comes and goes in waves

Still think about it everyday

October night everything changed

After we won the football game

And in five months we graduate

Not much time to clear this slate

So years of friendship dissipate

Right as we go our separate ways

I deserved a kinder goodbye

I didn't know that would be the last time we ever spoke

Now it's been months

There's still

So much I don't know

I wonder why

I get no apology

And everyone seems to forget about me

You move along

No penalty

No penalty, oh

No penalty
