Yo u d o n ’ t l i k e i t
when I ask about your family
Yo u d o n ’ t w a n t m e t o c o m e o v e r
‘cause you want me to believe
That every night he cooks you dinner
And he asks about your school day
Then he kisses you goodnight
And strokes you gently
On the forehead
The dog scratched your shoulder
Yo u w a l k e d i n t o t o a d o o r
Yo u b i t y o u r l i p b y a c c i d e n t
But it really doesn’t hurt
Anymore
Yo u s a y h e ’s b e t t e r n o w
that he is out of prison
Says he really wants to give you
Everything that you’ve been missing
Yo u j u s t c a m e h e r e
‘Cause he wasn’t in the mood
To h a v e y o u o v e r,
But it’s fine, you understand
That it’s not easy
Getting sober
The dog scratched your shoulder
Yo u w a l k e d i n t o a d o o r
Yo u b i t y o u r l i p b y a c c i d e n t ,
Like a million times before
The dog scratched your shoulder
The dog locked the door
The dog was just exhausted
That’s why he fell asleep
On the floor
