lyrics

You can blame me for all the things they say
But the things you do, well darling that’s on you
If you wanted out, then why’d you stick around?
And now your just another vacant heart I’ve found
And now your just another vacant heart I found

[VERSE]
As I recall the silence broke
With your parents in the next room
The only sound was the dog at your door
And your bed against the floorboards
Patiently we waited ‘til the town went to sleep
When we woke up in each other’s dreams
Picturesque it was almost perfect
The way you were talking to me
And now we’re strangers in the street

I’ll string you up and hang you high
Like a marionette doll, so you can live your lie
You deserve the worst and if that’s all it takes
Then can you really blame me for all your mistakes?

We’re older now and times have changed
And I can’t recall your face
I still remember that expression
The looks you always gave
Patiently I waited till you found your way home
Kept the porch lights on, waited on the phone
Picturesque it was almost perfect
The way you were talking to me
But now we’re strangers in the street

You left under my skin
Last time I let you in
You left under my skin
You had to say goodbye

You ruined my day, so I will fuck with your life
But death is for forever, so you will be alright
And since death is for forever, then death do us part
For once we speak the truth
So darling, that’s a start
