Like I Used To

In the blankets, in the sheets, on my bed
I can feel you holding back, going red
From all the lies and the words that you hide
There’s a boulder on your chest from the weight
Of the words that you keep to yourself
I am staring at your back, you are staring on the wall
You don’t love me like you used to
You don’t love me like you used to
And I don’t love you like I used to
I love you too much
Your silence reeks of cheating, reeks of her
I can sense her in your mouth on my neck
And in your screaming at the mention of her name
And your anger spills like bullets to my brain
Like an animal in fright I’m insane
And I run for cover from your aim in your arms
You don’t love me like you used to
You don’t love me like you used to
And I don’t love you like I used to
I love you too much
So I stick my brain in the sand
Watch me fold
Watch me wither
I stick my brain in the sand
Watch me fold
Watch me fold
Watch me fold
You don’t love me like you used to
You don’t love me like you used to
And I don’t love you like I used to
I love you too much

How we used to love
I ran into a woman on the sidewalk
‘Cause I was thinking too much about us
Dreaming of you and all we’ve lost
‘Cause now you’re always so angry
You’re always so sad
You’re mad about everything and everyone and I
I don’t have the heart for that
How we used to love
I’m afraid for our future
I’m afraid it won’t last
‘Cause you’ve got too many scars to hide
And I haven’t got enough to understand why
Why are you always so sad
Why are you always so
Why are you always so sad?
How we used to love
How we used to love
How we used to love
How we used to love
