lyrics

Words sit heavy in my mouth,
You lay unconscious on the couch,
I feel the smoke seep through my teeth,
But you’re the one making it hard to breathe.

You ask if I just woke up,
I nod my head but haven’t slept since you brought her up,
In a passing phrase like it’s not her that I taste,
On your skin.
I still let you in.

I should cut my losses, walk out the door,
In lieu of that I cut my hair on my bathroom floor,
In due course I’ll meet a man that I love more,
Until then you’ll be the one I cry out for.

I’m all too aware that I sound weak,
Sort of like when we met and I could barely speak,
And I’ve known this was done for weeks and weeks,
But if I whisper a word then you’ll have to leave.

I’m so sorry it didn’t work,
So heartbroken we both hurt,
I’m comfortless and cold,
You’re crying on my shoulder,
But there’s no good time to say goodbye.
