Curled like a kitten
Given up on giving up all of your useless, used up lives
Holding on to hopeless hopes there's love and meaning you can find
If the words just come out right
If the words just came out right, maybe you'd smile
And your sad rocket ship shaped eyes
Always aiming somewhere empty and away
Up in the sky
Towards a vacuum
Where the conversation's always kept inside
For when it's not okay to hide
For when it's not okay to hide
And you have to smile
Wе were alone
You lеt the tears out
You'd been saving them for me
To solve my crosswords with a pencil
'Cause I do make some mistakes
Remember how I tried to fill myself
With ideas you'd hold dear
And in the process left behind
The part of me that kept you here
That kept you here
Sleeping in the kitchen at the table
With the paper as a pillow
All the bad news sinks right in
Just like the black ink
Leaving headlines on your skin
And dreams of losing all your friends
How you'd stop missing all of them after a while
We were alone
You let the tears out
You'd been saving them for me
To solve my crosswords with a pencil
'Cause I do make some mistakes
Remember how I tried to fill myself
With ideas you'd hold dear
And in the process left behind
The part of me that kept you here
And it's just one more minor tragedy
You'll add it to your smile
And in the process it becomes
The part of me you left behind
You left behind
The part of me you left behind
The part of me you left behind
The part of me you left behind
