Sometimes it takes up all I have inside to focus on what’s good in life
Appreciate things and love and laughter
We used to have so much fun
It seems to me that I was just fine when I was around you

Now comfort me and bar my way to the door
Threaten me with your dark eyes my dear

Push me towards the ivory colored wall
And make me sob and cry for mercy oh I'm sure
I'm gonna go insane right there in your arms
You rip up my body
I believe it was always yours

I wish you would throw stones at me
So that I’d stop showing up at your door every night
So starved to the bone of love and laughter
But I can’t breathe oh, and I know I brought this on myself

Now my voice fails and I’ve got a feverish head
And you drive me out
Out in the cold into a fuckin’ snowstorm
Have you lost your mind my dear?
Have you lost your mind?

All of the words we said are strewn across the wooden floor
And it seems like everything falls apart these days

The ground I’ve conjured up for us
It’s going to rot if I don’t stop wreaking havoc
We’re running up and down
Up and down
Up and down the whole damn time my dear

Now comfort me and bar my way to the door
Threaten me with your dark eyes my dear

Push me towards the ivory colored wall
And make me sob and cry for mercy oh I'm sure
I'm gonna go cuckoo’s nest right there in your arms
Now rip up my body
I believe it was always yours
Always yours to have

I’ve opened all the gates
And letting in all the agony that I could find
And oh I tried to connect to anyone for so long
