Loud conversations
dragged my mom out of her room
to tell me I'd have to clean any mess I made

So we quieted down
and he left me

I had a smile that wouldn't wear out
a heart that wouldn't stop
yet, I had another to hold the place

Clean this mess she said
but, didn't know I put myself in it

I had lost it for a devil in disguise
I had lost it for a diamond in the sky
I had lost it for the sun in your eyes
