about

Music by Marc Griffin, Lyrics by Brittany Lindgren. Recorded in Marc's Bedroom.

lyrics

every morning you take stock
of the places she is not
not beside you when you wake

or slipping into your old sweater
and isn't this better

and she never really noticed
but you never noticed too

and she's not listening to her music while you smoke her cigarettes
no she never really it
and even though you tell yourself forgive and forget you still smoke her cigarettes

she's not beside you in the morning
not beside you through the day
she's not beside you while your sleeping
making everything ok

and in the night
when all is quiet
you can't deny that
it's not right

/she's not tired of the things you say
/or sick of the way you touch
/or sick of the way you act because you don't want her enough
/she's not forcing herself to smile
/or wishing herself away
/not trying to be happy so you will be ok

and she never really loved you
