Heartache

(album: Merci - 2018)

Left my keys in the mailbox
Left the back door unlocked
So I could tell myself I still had a way
To crawl back in your bed
And crawl out of my head
So I might be there when
You wake up in the morning

Left my hair in the sink
Left my love in red ink
So I could tell myself I wouldn't
End up back at my mother's front door
Got cut up by the teeth in the floor
I swore I'd never get
Half as chewed up as I am now
And just look at how that turned out

You, yeah, you got heartache coming your way
Yeah, now there's nothing else to say
That's how we'll leave it

Left my meds on your desk
The ones you thought I was taking
So I could tell myself
I don't need your help to fill in the cracks
You said I ain't worth the shirt on my back
Said you'd be hearing from me in a month
When I'm all out of money

You, yeah, you got heartache coming your way
Yeah, now there's nothing else to say
That's how we'll leave it

Baby, you
Don't you know it has to be this way?
Oh, love, you've got heartache in your veins
That's how we'll leave it
