"Rent Free" lyrics

"Rent Free"

It's a two-bed, two-bath four miles from downtown, ain't cheap
I still get your credit card bills and your gossip magazines
I can't afford this view and my bar tab at the same time
Thought you moved out, but you moved into my mind

You're rent free in my head
Your white sheets on my bed
That one stain on the couch
Shoulda known that I'd never get it out
You're takin' up space
In empty picture frames
That you left in my house
And even if I burn it all down
You'd find a way to hang around

Opened up all the windows, so why won't your perfume just leave? (Just leave, yeah)
I still water the garden I built you even though it's full of weeds
Stuck with the pain, all the walls and them long-stemmed glasses
I'll never use, just holdin' on to (Come on)

You're rent free in my head
Your white sheets on my bed
That one stain on the couch
Shoulda known that I'd never get it out
You're takin' up space
In empty picture frames
That you left in my house
And even if I burn it all down (Down, down, down, down)
You'd find a way to hang around

You'd find a way, find a way, girl

The least you could do is go halves on some closure
I know you're long gone, but you're still stayin' over, yeah

Rent free in my head
Your white sheets on my bed
That one stain on the couch
Shoulda known that I'd never get it out
You're takin' up space
In empty picture frames
That you left in my house
And even if I burn it all down (Down, down, down, down)
You'd find a way to hang around
