My life is something I'm getting used to Because every time a piece of my heart is torn away It grows back Like a lizards tail But I'm just getting used to it. And when 200 miles caused you to fall out of love with me I never got over it I'm not sure I can say that I got used to it. It's still somewhere in the back corner of my brain It sneaks up on me at night And comforts me in my nightmares I wake up screaming "come back!" But I can't find a place to put this memory I can't just drop it in the food disposal And I don't know if I could ever let this memory go because it is the closest I'll ever be with you again

Used to it
My life is something I'm getting used to Because every time a piece of my heart is torn away It grows back Like a lizards tail But I'm just getting used to it. And when 200 miles caused you to fall out of love with me I never got over it I'm not sure I can say that I got used to it. It's still somewhere in the back corner of my brain It sneaks up on me at night And comforts me in my nightmares I wake up screaming "come back!" But I can't find a place to put this memory I can't just drop it in the food disposal And I don't know if I could ever let this memory go because it is the closest I'll ever be with you again
I lied. I'm not used to it
