Song Lyrics

So so what happens in your room?
when you're all alone with me at home
going crazy over you

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

I hate hate the way you look at me
where's the pills for that thing that you call
"sweepin' me off my feet"
it's girls like you that keep open graves
for boys like me
that keep themselves locked up for days

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

Take this stupid heart
I know it's all you ever want me for
and I hope you keep it close
so everyone knows that it's all because of you
that I'm dead to the world

I won't wait, I won't wait, I won't wait
I won't wait for you to make me stop

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

Take this stupid heart
I know it's all you ever want me for
and I hope you keep it close
so everyone knows that it's all because of you
that I'm dead to the world
