G
I hate the stench of coffee on your breath
C Em G
And I hate to feel its warmth against my neck
And what right do you have to have nightmares about me
C Em C G
When all I wanted was to sleep?
Em C
We have to take the car 'cause the bike's on fire
Em D Bm
We cannot trust your friends 'cause they were born liars
Em C Em
And if you don't exist with hearts the size of a house brick
C Bm C
Cease and desist!
G C Em G
G
I left your shallow skin and a note on your kitchen sideboard
Em G
It read, "I have left you, please never try to find me"

You walk in from your mother's balcony
Panda-eyed and freezing cold
G

G
listening to white noise or, well, obviously it's not
C
I somehow manage to translate them from Braille
Em C
G
The trails on your skin spoke more to me than the reams and reams of the half finished novels you'd leave
Lying around all over the place
G
And every quotation that'd dribbled from your mouth like a final, fatal LivejJournal entry
G C
"I know, I am wrong, I am sorry"
