lyrics

Renovations and dirty looks are easier then writing the book.
Arts and letters are easy to leave when you can't afford a new pair of jeans.
Then it got harder, the harder you looked, you were the cop and I was the crook.
You are the hanger and I am the coat, when you leave I fall to the floor.
You won't shed a tear until you're full of them, till you're already gone.

Scars and lesions are easy to hide when they're under the skin and behind the eyes.
Pretending to love me is harder by far, but you've done it with grace for so very long.

I'll call it a day once you've gone away, once your conscience is clear.

Nothing will get done.
Staring at the Sun just like the one that you would make fun of.
Nothing will go right.
Following that dull and tiny light that you've been chasing all your life.

I will surely stay in this mess I've made until my ears will not hear.
You'll find happiness once you've left this mess, you've got nothing to fear.
