It's been a long time since I've seen you smile
all the down time and I still couldn't really make you mine
in this garden of youth, what are you trying to find?
this hatred consumes most of our beloved time.

Days fly by and we don't really age too well
logic has fled our brains to take refuge somewhere else
if this pain is what you call love, I don't really like it much
pictured it would be sunshine and roses but this just fucking hurts.

yeah darlin' call me on my phone at 3am
tell me lies when your drunk half to death
when the morning comes you'll just forget
the things you told me I wish you never said.

Curtains on my windows are always closed
you'd tear them down in an instant but you're never home
you like to keep that window open to feel the warmth
I get so numb sometimes I don't feel my heart.

In the garden you fell asleep again
Still searching for answers but only find more pain
you try to tell I am your love, it was all in vain
you could've told me that before you locked lips my friend

Spent countless nights staring at a ceiling fan
think about your relentless words and your cunning plans
All you are is a pretty mouth that tells convincing lies
but now that we're done, it really feels nice
