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
