Was I convenient
Were we typical, you and me
Boy meets girl and its meant to be
Till the boy just gets up and leaves
Was I your weekend
Entertain at your beck and call
Hopeful eyes and a southern drawl
Did I make you feel so damn tall
I was sneaking into your basement
Call it a birdcage, call me a raven
I don't think I can forget your face
You were tripping over your words
Over the edge babe, your songbird
Couldn't fly, when you fell she died
I breathe in hope
And exhale idiocy
You burn the messages I write
I'm at the mailbox waiting
My friends make jokes
I know they're pitying me
Just need one single note
'Cause all your love letters are fading
Was I just stupid
Were you ever into me
Or just into my body
Gave your friends some imagery
Was this destructive
Or was that a one-way streak
Will your soul not stop burning
Cause mine's on fire every day of the week
Slither through the garden
Apple of my eye
Take me apart, we're
Skeletons who've been bled dry
I breathe in hope
And exhale idiocy
You burn the messages I write
I'm at the mailbox waiting
My friends make jokes
I know they're pitying me
Just need one single note
'Cause all your love letters are fading
Just need one piece of paper
Saying we're okay
God, "casual" was laughable
I thought the feeling ricocheted
You think I would let you just
Wish me away
You don't get to love and to leave like that
Don't get to love then to cut me in half
I breathe in hope
And exhale idiocy
You burn the messages I write
I'm at the mailbox waiting
My friends make jokes
I know they're pitying me
Just need one single note
'Cause all your love letters are fading
All your love letters are fading
