"My House" lyrics

(Oh-ah, no no no no no)
(Ah)

He was like my reflection, but I always turned away
Gave all of my attention to love that led me to pain
Chasing dead ends was the game I knew best
'Til I surrendered and who would've guessed?

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell him "No, no, no, no, no"
When he asked me out
Then I said "Fine, let's go"
And he never left my house

He gave me pretty flowers, and I gave him empty threats
I was afraid of falling, but now he's my safety net
Chasing dead ends was the way I survived
But if that's how I'd find him, then I'd do it twice

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell him "No, no, no, no, no" (No)
When he asked me out
Then I said "Fine, let's go"
And he never left my house

He's got all of my heart (Oh-ah, ah)
And half of my room (Me and my guy on the same side)
He's lived in my mind (Oh-ah, ah)
Even before I, before I ever knew

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell him "No, no, no, no, no" (No, no)
When he asked me out (Me out)
Then I said "Fine, let's go"
And he never left my house
No, no, no, no, no (No, no)
When he asked me out
Then I said "Fine, let's go"
And he never left my house
