i wish i were something else
her name still rests on his lips
and i taste her when i kiss him
he tells me she's dead but
her ghost is in our bed
and i can't even **** it.
she sleeps between us,
eats at his heart
and he won't even touch me
because i am what she's not.
he tells me she's gone
but i know the harsh bark of her voice
better than i know my own song
i keep singing
and singing
and singing
hoping to cut through what's wrong
i keep singing
and singing
and he knows the words now
but he won't sing along.
no, he won't sing along.
