I veer left as you go right
  There’s a beanie on my bedroom floor
  It’s gray, just like the sky
  When it opens up and starts to pour
  On sadder days, when you lie
  Late at night and you open the door
  Deny your recent goodbyes
  There’s a beanie on my bedroom floor
  It’s a mess, like you and I.
  There’s a beanie on your phone background
  It’s blue, just like the sea
  The low tide reveals the past as drowned
  And us as escapees
  The other girl is the one who’s crowned
  Yet you ignore my plea
  There’s a beanie on your phone background
  On a girl who isn’t me.
  There’s a beanie on my best friend’s head
  It’s black, just like the night
  And like death: I wonder, do you feel dead?
  Is our life your biggest blight?
  You really love me, you always said,
  But now you’re out of sight.
  There’s a beanie on my best friend’s head.
  Should I succumb to this delight?
