please leave the light on
when you walk out the door
you know I can't take the dark
much anymore
at least leave a note
leave it on the bed
i'll read it when i get home
get it stuck in my head
are there rules for this?
any tools for this?
momma never taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run
should i be crying?
or cursing your name?
i just feel nothing
but you're gone all the same
tell me, what were you thinking?
were we even on your mind?
turned your back on thirty years
as if it was fine
there are no rules for this
i made my tools for this
you sure as hell never taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run
you made your bed now lie in it
messed with my head you'll live with it
are there rules for this?
any tools for this?
i wish that you had taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run

i hate hearing your voice in my head
i know that you're out there it just feels like you're dead
and i know that i shouldn't care
but i do
why'd you chase after me?
you could have stayed on and just let me leave
but you didn't, did you?
now i miss the things that you didn't do
oh baby, you didn't break my heart
i'm doing just fine, i'm not falling apart
but there are ghosts in my head and no one in my bed
and i've gotta find a place for you
it's so strange, you didn't scare me
usually my hands shake and i cannot breathe
but i stayed by your side that whole night
so tell me, was it all in my mind?
was i reading too much into too few signs?
i just loved that gap in your teeth
who could blame me?
oh baby you didn't break my heart
i'm doing just fine i'm not falling apart
but there are ghosts in my head and no one in my bed
and i've gotta find a place for you
so don't tell me the next time you come through
i hope i never put someone on a pedestal the way i did with you
cause you stopped me, i couldn't move
comparing everyone to the idea of you

Jesus Christ (Electric)

i sleep in my childhood bedroom
i wanted a change, so now it's sky blue
is this normal at twenty two?
i'm coming home from work to dinner and wine
have to call my mother if i won't be on time
and the guy i like he's so much older
he's so cool with that chip on his shoulder
i dance around the facts that aren't so pretty
like i am scared of silence, and no one's ever loved me
have you had enough?
should i keep this up?
i suppose that i should learn to fix my heart
but it's so fun to fall apart
i used to go for these long drives
trying to ride out my mind
i'd listen to one song on a playlist i got from my friend
"jesus christ, i'm alone again"
"jesus christ, i'm alone again"
and i'd point to the days ahead
saying "i promise, that'll be when
everything will fall into place and
i will be okay"
but i keep pushing it off,
just not today
but i've got to make this right
i'm carving my life with a plastic knife
i'm crying in the kitchen to my poor mother
she just wants a stable kid
and i don't want her to worry about me
for one more minute
have you had enough?
cause i can't keep this up
yeah i know that i've got to fix my heart
cause it's not cute anymore to fall apart
