Lovers turn into monsters at the loss of all affection
Almost like it was the affection that kept them from being monsters
And I could have used some warning
I was on that porch all morning
Smoking cigarettes and sinking deeper into doubt

Could it be I am mistaken, have I stolen somebody´s baby?
Is it possible for two people to need the same thing?

It´s just the lines, they get so blurry
Between what is once, and now required
And I don´t know on which side his heart falls
But I know where mine is buried
And it´s so far from any wanting
Yeah, it needs this to keep beating
It won´t go on without it

If I´m still weighed down with subtleties
Then I´ll just come right out and say
That I think that I deserve her
More than anyone deserves anything
Maybe I am selfish, but there is no way to share this
There´s not enough to go around, I don´t care who else gets hurt

But I´m still sick with empathy because I was stood in his place
I spent a year quietly dying while he let go and ignored her
And I´m sure that there are reasons for everything that happens
And absence leads to adoration, yeah it´s nobody´s fault

But now there is no way to change this
So I just photographed and framed it
And it´s hanging in a hallway
That we have no right to walk back down

But I hope that he feels better but I´m sick of all the drama
I can´t stand to see her crying, I just want this shit to end
And I want a place to hang out where record players play out
And there´s a thousand movies rented for a thousand nights with her
