[Verse 1]

I caught a train

Just to watch suburbia begin to fade

As the night begins to swallow up the day

A cupboard mouse, the house that built me

Also wilts me like tall flowers in the shade

[Verse 2]

I saw your name

On a billboard for the fortunate to claim

On a sign to sweat the evil from my veins

Bygones should be long gone

But the thought of us still covers me in the shade

[Chorus]

And in this life you've shown me

I've never known me

I've given all of that away

And in the times I hold you

I should've shown you

How much of me needеd to stay

[Verse 3]

I'm wide awake

I hear my gеcko catching crickets in its cage

I hear my neigbors arguing about their day

I know a part of me is lost

I know to them, I'm worth the cost of saving face

[Verse 4]

I hear your name

From a friend who left with nothing else to say

I'm a guest until I clean the mess that I've made

Bygones should be long gone

But the thought of us still covers me in shade

[Chorus]

And in this life you've shown me

I've never known me

I've given all of that away

And in the times I hold you

I should've shown you

How much of me needed to stay
