From the basement where we first talked
to the ride home
with the kids we barely knew
you left a permanent scar
Memories are taped on our walls
hung as a reminder
How easy it could be
when we weren't growing apart
I'm always talking in circles
I always think until I can't sleep
We always want what is kept from us
Well maybe I am the liar
and there is nothing that is left for us
You are a permanent scar
I'm always talking in circles
I always think until I can't sleep
You are the leaves at my feet
You are the hum of electric heat
I kept myself away
but I'm starting to like the pain
From the basement where we first talked
to the ride home
with the kids we barely knew
you left a permanent scar
Memories are taped on our walls
hung as a reminder
How easy it could be
when we weren't growing apart
I'm always talking in circles
I always think until I can't sleep
We always want what is kept from us
Well maybe I am the liar
and there is nothing that is left for us
You are a permanent scar
I'm always talking in circles
I always think until I can't sleep
You are the leaves at my feet
You are the hum of electric heat
