lyrics

i wonder if you still have those roses
hanging in your bedroom
and the picture i developed
or did you rip them both to bits
or did you rip them both to bits
when you got home from the airport

i still have the flower
i pinned on my collar
i am still the same
my hands are still stained
by soil and flower matter
i keep taking showers
but my hands still smell like salt water and you
maybe that's why i'm so blue

you said that you found happiness
i guess i’m still struggling with that
try as i might
i still can’t sleep at night
but i won fifty bucks
at the casino the other night
maybe when the weather clears
and the peonies bloom
i’ll forget about these new fears

sometimes i get sick when i smoke
i’m so god damn lonely
that i’ve been thinking about
cultivating meaningless
physical relationships
but we both know i can't do that
i’m just so god damn lonely
because i left my heart at your house
somewhere along the line
and by the way
that was me that stole your street sign
