i hope you're happy
i hope your mattress hates me
when i'm lying on the bathroom floor
let's both hope i paused to lock the door
so there's an excuse for you to leave
don't bother with talking
don't bother with coming clean
cause when i'm locked out in the cold
i won't call you to drive me home
there's no reason to see you again
keep my arms at my side
try not to look you in the eye
where do we go from here?
listening at keyholes
i can feel you in my bones
shallow conclusions and bitter ends
look at the clock, it's 2 a.m.
drag myself to an empty bed
with my arms at my side
won't look you in the eye
there's nowhere to go from here.
it snowed today
i think it was to remind me
of your pale white face
or how you always
felt so cold
your crooked teeth
bite down on my name
but i'd lie if i said
it drove me away
your bedsheets
know me so well
did you want them to
cause i still can't tell
it snowed today
as if i could have forgotten
such a pale white face
or how you always
felt so cold
i’m drunk but i’m in love with the way your
hands drape across my legs
i hope you don’t see me cry
but it’s getting hard to hide my face
i wanna go home with you
take my clothes off in your bed
take me home with you
put your pillow under my head
i’m drunk but i despise the way your
hands drape across her legs
