The Full Apartment (Aromantic Love)

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My apartment has exactly what it needs
A bed that fits me and a table set for one
The fork is where I left it and the window
Lets in just enough of everybody's sun

People ask me aren't you lonely like the word
Is something I misplaced beneath the couch
I say my couch is perfect for the way I sit
Which is diagonal and taking up the whole amount

[Chorus]
I'm not waiting for the other shoe
The shoe I've got fits fine and it's my size
Love is not a thing I'm missing
Love is how I organized my life

[Verse 2]
My mother sends me articles on timing
My sister says I'll change my mind by spring
My barber says the right one hasn't found me yet
As if I'm standing still instead of doing everything

I run at six and cook elaborate Wednesdays
I read until the book kicks me to sleep
I have the kind of quiet people pay for in hotels
And I built it for myself and it was cheap

[Chorus]
I'm not waiting for the other shoe
The shoe I've got fits fine and it's my size
Love is not a thing I'm missing
Love is how I organized my life

[Bridge]
The radical thing is not the absence
The radical thing is that the absence isn't one
I filled the room before you got here
And the room was done

[Outro]
Set for one
Not half of two
Set for one
On purpose
