Lyrics

[00:00.56] I'm missing your bed
[00:02.47] I never sleep
[00:03.97] Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
[00:06.74] And this bottle of beast
[00:08.40] Is taking me home
[00:12.78] I'm cuddling close
[00:14.28] To blankets and sheets
[00:15.67] But you're not alone, and you're not discreet
[00:18.58] Make sure I know who's taking you home.
[00:24.44] I'm reading your note over again
[00:27.45] And there's not a word that I comprehend,
[00:30.31] Except when you signed it
[00:31.83] I will love you always and forever
[00:39.07] I'm missing your laugh
[00:40.69] How did it break?
[00:42.14] And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
[00:45.01] I hope you're as happy as you're pretending.
[00:50.94] I'm cuddling close
[00:52.37] To blankets and sheets
[00:53.84] and I am alone
[00:55.31] In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home
[01:02.67] I'm missing your bed
[01:04.02] I never sleep
[01:05.52] Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
[01:08.49] And this bottle of beast is taking me home.
[01:14.18] We saw the western coast
[01:17.52] I saw the hospital
[01:20.45] Nursed the shoreline like a wound
[01:26.04] Reports of lover's tryst
[01:29.37] Were neither clear nor descript
[01:32.29] We kept it safe and slow
[01:34.17] The quiet things that no one ever knows
[01:37.27] So keep the blood in your head
[01:39.25] And keep your feet on the ground
[01:40.31] Today's the day it gets tired
[01:41.82] Today's the day we drop down
[01:43.15] Gave up my body and bed
[01:44.62] All for an empty hotel
[01:46.06] Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[01:51.11] "Do you leave your razorblades lying around?"
[01:53.02] "Don't be a philistine Winnie."
[01:54.74] Well as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
[01:59.01] And sit alone and wonder
[02:02.68] How you're making out
[02:06.18] but as for me, I wish that I was anywhere, with anyone
[02:12.15] Making out.
[02:18.65] I'm missing your laugh
[02:20.12] How did it break?
[02:21.58] And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
[02:24.46] I hope you're as happy as you're pretending.
[02:30.33] I'm missing your bed
[02:31.81] I never sleep
[02:33.23] Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
[02:36.21] And this bottle of beast is taking me home.
[02:42.39] "Look, darling, hasn't this gone a little too far?"
[02:44.91] "It certainly has."
[02:46.21] And iiii....
[02:46.83] So keep the blood in your head
[02:47.86] And keep your feet on the ground
[02:49.05] Today's the day it gets tired
[02:50.67] Today's the day we drop down
[02:51.99] Gave up my body and bed
[02:53.43] All for an empty hotel
[02:55.05] Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[02:57.68] So keep the blood in your head
[02:59.29] And keep your feet on the ground
[03:00.83] Today's the day it gets tired
[03:02.34] Today's the day we drop down
[03:03.82] Gave up my body and bed
[03:04.87] All for an empty hotel
[03:06.73] Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[03:09.34] So keep the blood in your head
[03:11.02] And keep your feet on the ground
[03:12.59] Today's the day it gets tired
[03:14.16] Today's the day we drop down
[03:15.51] Gave up my body and bed
[03:17.49] All for an empty hotel
[03:18.36] Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[03:21.63] (Your hair, it's everywhere.
[03:26.83] Screaming infidelities
[03:29.93] And taking its wear.)
[03:31.18]
