lyrics

i found the habits that we started together impossible to break even though you're gone. i'm trying not to smoke--at least not everyday. i'm trying to sleep a little less with my shoes on. but it's not easy. not that i thought it would be. i bet your telephone is ringing but i promise that it's not me.

because i am gone, i am gone like your missing cigarettes. i am gone, i am gone and i am going to regret this decision for probably the rest of the summer. and campfire songs are meaningless but i still kept singing even after you left. i will regret this decision for probably the rest of the summer. what day is this?

i found it meaningless to reciprocate empty feelings, even in a song. and i'm not trying to hurt you, i'm just trying to leave you where you are with all of your clothes on. but it's not easy. i will lie down without a fight. this time i swear that i'm leaving. airplane tickets couldn't change my mind.

i am burned down to the filter. i am the ashes on your floor. blow smoke into my mouth until i can't breathe anymore.

i should expect this from any tattooed girl with an ear for poetry.

i hate you. do you still love me?
