You walk in the room and grab my eyes
When I hear you talk I realize
That you are all I've wanted all my life
Some talk shit but I don't care what they think
I've made some bad decisions too but darling
Reputations don't mean a fucking thing
Scarlet let me walk you home
It's getting late and I would appreciate
Knowing that your safe and not alone
Scarlet let me walk you home
At the very least then you can keep some peace
Inside my head and call me on the phone
You're the house on the block with the broken windows
Cracked but still see through
It's alright if I cut myself trying to look inside
To know what everyone thinks they do
Some talk shit but I don't care what they think
I've made some bad decisions too but darling
Reputations don't mean a fucking thing
chorus
If you want to know what I think about at night
It's only your smile my memory seems to find
If you want to know what I dream about at night
It's only your smile that plays behind these eyes
I need to remember to keep my heart safe and sound
Because the last time I let it be viewed
I fell in so hard
I misplaced love and it took too long to get back
Let me know if I'm just wasting my time
And I'll leave you alone
One word could keep this heart from hitting the floor
Or you can know be by the sound that I don't make
As I go slipping out the door
Did you lie "when you went away and you said you'd coming
up the front porch to see me"?
I'll disappear, I promise
I'll disappear, I promise
I'll disappear and you'll be fine

Love Bores You

I never knew how long a week could be
An eternity it seems
Since you left for home without me
Back to your new city
And I could pray but that's not me
I'd rather sulk and just secede
Cause' fighting fate's
Worse than screaming at a storm, pleading
Don't rain down on me
That don't mean that while you're gone
I don't die inside each day
Or wake up sweating hoping it's just a dream
And that you really did stay
I don't need eyes cause I don't see
Don't need lungs cause I don't breath
My heart stops beating when you leave
So can we talk about how you put your love up for auction?
I was bidding all I got
When I said life without you's not an option
Bare minimum you can teach me
How to sever strong ties so neatly
I have to know your remedy for missing and letting go
Because every time you're gone
I die inside each day
Or wake up sweating hoping it's just a dream
And that you really did stay
I don't need eyes cause I don't see
Don't need lungs cause I don't breath
My heart stops beating...
Cause it's too easy for you to leave
I guess that you just never fully fell
Now you know in your head that you can
Always rely on me
To be waiting
And it's killing me how easy it is for you to leave
I propped you up and so you never fully fell
And now you know in your head that you can
Always rely on me
To be waiting
You take full advantage of your gullible sucker waiting
At home sweet hell
