While you lay there waiting for the other shoe to drop,
your bed felt deadly thinking how you used to be on top.
While you choose your weapons and your methods of return,
I’ll rifle through your drawers for some idols I can burn.
While you lay there waiting for your lights to sputter out,
your bed felt deadly thinking of the things you’d go without.
While you stick to counting and repeating my mistakes,
I’ll peer into your closet for some toys that I can break.
In the shadow of the waterworks,
I got there first.
Is it to have and hold,
or is it have them for dessert?
While you lay there waiting for your heart to simmer down,
your bed felt deadly thinking if I’d ever come around.
While you prick yourself with needles just to get some sleep,
I’ll burgle your apartment for some secrets I can keep.
The night I was with her,
she couldn’t hold her liquor,
she screamed and threw up in her purse.
Didn’t care for my songs,
but death turned her on,
so she turned on her own waterworks.
