She went to church, she was from the 'burbs
When she passed, all the heads turned
I'm from New York, rode a skateboard and camped out on a corner
She and I didn't see eye to eye on politics and such
But when I tell you, oh, none of that mattered
When we got together, it was love
I saw her at her worst, still, I desired her
I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
I watched her start to hate me 'til she could no longer take me, oh-oh-oh
She locked the door, but she left the key under the mat
Oh, and I've known this for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
Oh, and it's coming off the hinges, from the wall, it has detached
Oh, and I've known this for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
We moved into a shoebox out of school and it felt like a honeymoon
She'd go to work while I made my songs
For a moment there, it was just us two
I saw her at her worst, still, I desired her
I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
I watched her start to hate me 'til she could no longer take me, oh-oh-oh
She locked the door, but she left the key under the mat
Oh, and I've known this for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
Oh, and it's coming off the hinges, from the wall, it has detached
Oh, and I've known this for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
I was doing fine until it hit me on a random day in July
That she'll never be mine again in this lifetime
I was doing fine until it hit me on a random day in July
That I'll never be satisfied 'cause she will never be mine
She locked the door, but she left the key under the mat
Oh, and I've noticed for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
Oh, and it's coming off the hinges, from the wall, it has detached
Oh, and I've noticed for a while, but I am still too afraid to act
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That's the album, man
