From the LP 'Flightless', available everywhere June 26, 2025. akandthebod.com IG: @alexkasznel_andthebod FB: @alexkasznelandthebod Directed by ‪Bagel Run‬ Media ----- "The Shape of Texas" At your house Down in Arlington We went out Asked you how you’ve been Since you moved down here Has it been a year? Ponytail Through your cap again And you looked So American Like you always did Tell me, how’s the kid? You’re in my phone As your maiden name But back in October You hyphenated it Broke my heart With that save-the-date That magnet sealed my fate There’s no question that love is a curse Something I’d never wish on my worst Enemy, hyperbole has got the best of me again Got a ride Back to DFW Tried To just let the elephant Leave the room (Leave the room) Between me and you All the times That I stuck my foot In my mouth Back when you were mine Surprised there’s still room (For these platitudes) That I tell myself about you (In my heart) I want what’s best for you (In my head) I know you got it too (In my gut) I know it’s wrong But I think about you all day long There’s no question that love is a curse Something I’d never wish on my worst Enemy, hyperbole has got the best of me again Cause there’s no telling the damage I’ll do If I start spelling out my feelings for you Emily, you ruined me the moment (Me the moment) Me the moment you became my friend The creases in my pillowcase Drew a map onto my sleeping face Faint pink lines that made the shape of Texas Emily, you were my muse And I’m acting like I’m over you Sometimes I only wish I knew Which one of us I’m lying to There’s no question that love is a curse Something I’d never wish on my worst Enemy, oh Emily you got the best of me again The best of me again The best of me again The best of me again
