I spray on your favorite cologne even though

There was no chance of turning you on, I know

Trying too hard just leaves us miserable, but I’m

Slow to learn and slower to grow up

Pass me the blame and say the thoughts aren’t clear

Say it wouldn’t happen in a million tears

Accusations are piling up here

Resurfacing all of your fears

Bugs are digging deep into your skin, and you go

Out of your way to never let me in, even though

You feel detached, don’t remember where you’ve been, please don’t

Turn away and claim that this is sin

In my room I still see your face, and a ghost

Of someone who once lived in this place, long ago

And memories will not her leave, I know

She’s here, watching as I sleep

Lying here underneath the sheet, over me

A night light might not slightly turn to white, where’s the

One who used to cling to my shoulder blades and

Moan and scream and tell me it’s ok

It’s not ok

This house is no mansion, though it’s got a few stories

And each one it tells about how it fell

Everyone it tells how they failed
