Remainder

Had the feeling that we were due for bad news

Six months away before we knew

That no good was ever coming through

I burnt down the house for you

I moved my shit out of your room

I kissed my dog goodbye

"I guess it's time to move."

My things on the lawn in the heat

September stayed so warm and your sweat tasted sweet

It's the last time I held you complete

The last family on the street

The only time we meet -- you're not alone

But all things in mind, I couldn't be better

Than times that I've denied myself my happiness

And all things considered, I come out the remainder

Left alone without my whole

So where'd you go?

Now I stay indoors on my throne

And I talk to myself

Pray that you haven't flown

And I'll reap what I have sown

Because I'm just a fucked up boy

Who dreams of dying alone

But all things in mind, I couldn't be better

Than times that I've denied myself my happiness

And all things considered, I come out the remainder

Left alone without my whole

But all things in mind, I couldn't be better

Than times that I've denied myself my happiness

And all things considered, I come out the remainder

Left alone without my whole

Moving in I'm miserable from rings and beds I took for granted

Feels like I am barely here

Seven years that never happened

Giving up on loving things

Except maybe for my new family

Hold myself up for display:

"Everything just brings me down today."
