I can’t get used to this
house full of loneliness
talking to myself
pretending that you’re there
it’s a story of sad cliches
far from from memories
days we used to know
one step sideways
then forward
then back again
caught off balance
’til we’re walking through the walls
there’s so much we don’t talk about
we just dance around
such an empty show
stay with me
stay with me oh
I’m holding on tight to your ghost
‘cause you’ve disappeared
here goes nothing
I’m letting go
look me in the eye
run away or stay this time
I never thought I’d have to
see through parts of you
are you telling the truth this time
there’s no finding out
there’s no finding you
signs of weakness
I couldn’t feel vulnerable
all good wishes and favors don’t say enough
like your love
they’ve gone quiet now
not the strong pale beauty I used to know
