lyrics

My friends know I'm way too nice
I let strangers talk all night
Much as I like listening
I don't like when my ears

Built a house inside my head
So that I would not forget
Memories are just like rooms but,
You can't walk back into them

Walk back into
Walk back in the room

Cut the dog from his leash
Just to watch him piss on my feet
Watch the sun going down
Just to come back boring as hell

All the colors on your wall
Remind me that I can't draw
Most of what I do create
Comes out of a strange mistake

Oh how
Oh how strange
Oh how strange it is

Watch the dog run away
Thought he'd come back like yesterday
Watch the sun going going down
Never thought it would not come around
