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 once 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
