I Don't Live There AnymoreI live in a glass houseBut I'm forever throwing stones Most of it's broken But I call it my home I was smoking like a chimney I was standing on the porch Well the bell is kept on ringing but there was no one at the door Well, you might have seen the invite cuz I was cooking all the time But placemats were empty when I sat down to dine You could have changed it all if you had called The house was cold And remained unsold The neighbour told me you darkened my door, Well I hope you saw I don't live there anymore Saw so much pain though these windows Left your picture on the fridge Well they boarded them up dead shut And I'm glad that they did I miss the leaking from the ceiling And the squeaking of the gate Took some of your lilies with me But they won't grow the same You could have changed it all if you had called The house was cold And remained unsold The neighbour told me you darkened my door, Well I hope you saw I don't live there anymore Well I took some paint from a desperate place And an emptied case And I covered up the walls But there's still scuff marks And some plastered scars I drive the same old car But you couldn't tell at all The neighbour told me you darkened my door, Well I hope you saw I don't need you anymore |
