"Haunted House" lyrics

"Haunted House"

You
How did I come to you?
When I never offered you comfort on most days
It's true, gravity pulled us through
But I know I asked of you
More than you could give
Cause I couldn't take
An empty room, a quiet place
Filled with photographs of my mistakes
You
How did I come to you?
Through the window of the bedroom
I saw you standing
In the moonlight
Like a diamond shining so bright
Like a song on the tip of my tongue

Is it alright if I tell you the truth
I never expected you
Out of the blue
And into the black
I thought I was never coming back
I'm not afraid of most things now
I spend every day in a haunted house
Surrounded by blood and cum and shit
And all of the things I can't forget

I wish I could tell you just how it feels
To stare into the blackness of the spinning wheel
Over and over and over again
It feels like this keeps happening
You fell in love with a dying star
A failing liver and a broken heart
But if you can love me for all that I'm not
I'll give you the rest of what I've got
