( Brand New vs. Dashboard confessional)



I'm missing your bed 

I never sleep 

Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak, 

And this bottle of beast 

Is taking me home 

I'm cuddling close 

To blankets and sheets 

But you're not alone, and you're not discreet 

Make sure I know who's taking you home. 



I'm reading your note over again 

And there's not a word that I comprehend, 

Except when you signed it 

I will love you always and forever 



I'm missing your laugh 

How did it break? 

And when did your eyes begin to look fake? 

I hope you're as happy as you're pretending. 



I'm cuddling close 

To blankets and sheets 

and I am alone 

In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home 



I'm missing your bed 

I never sleep 

Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak, 

And this bottle of beast is taking me home. 



We saw the western coast 

I saw the hospital 

Nursed the shoreline like a wound 

Reports of lover's tryst 

Were neither clear nor descript 

We kept it safe and slow 

The quiet things that no one ever knows 



So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

Today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop down 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 



"Do you leave your razorblades lying around?" 

"Don't be a philistine Winnie." 



Well as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs 

And sit alone and wonder 

How you're making out 

but as for me, I wish that I was anywhere, with anyone 

Making out. 



I'm missing your laugh 

How did it break? 

And when did your eyes begin to look fake? 

I hope you're as happy as you're pretending. 



I'm missing your bed 

I never sleep 

Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak, 

And this bottle of beast is taking me home. 



"Look, darling, hasn't this gone a little too far?" 

"It certainly has." 



And iiii.... 



So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

Today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop down 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 



So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

Today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop down 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 



So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

Today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop down 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 



(Your hair, it's everywhere. 

Screaming infidelities 

And taking its wear.)
