lyrics

Waking up with a charley horse
Waking up in a state of divorce
Soaking my hands in a tub of ice
Feeling my heart squeezed in a vise

Chorus
Still hope is better than despair

Curdled milk in my coffee cup
Not going out but I dressed up
This kitchen folds in on itself
Does this blood belong to someone else?

Chorus

In a hypothetical state of mind
I left that part of me behind
But the hungry ghosts they’re coming fast
They’re rummaging through all my trash

If I could dream back all I’ve lost
I’d sleep all day while my heart defrosts
A shoot of green out on the lawn
That’s all I dream since she’s been gone

Chorus
