Ferment lyrics

[Intro]
Time will tell if I still smell the
Perfume seeded deep in my mattress
I guess it's not the worst of scent
When feelings don't ferment

[Chorus]
The last "I love you" text you sent reads better in my head
To pick up where we left, my dear, is better said in jest
I'm retracing my steps to steer from acting on regret
A rosy retrospect at best, I wish we never met

(I wish we never met)

[Verse]
The seconds pass as I move past
The notion that we thought we'd last
It's open mic with [? laugh tracks on a loop]
Cause we've been feeling blue
Tell me why are you scared?
It's not fare you [?]
[I’ve lost it] I can't
It's too late for you just to hold on

[Chorus]
The last "I love you" text you sent reads better in my head
To pick up where we left, my dear, is better said in jest
I'm retracing my steps to steer from acting on regret
A rosy retrospect at best, I wish we never met
[Outro]
(Time will tell if I still smell the)
(Perfume seeded deep in my mattress)
(I guess it's not the worst of scent)
(When feelings don't ferment)
