I am someone who, until recent events, you shared your secrets with
And your location, you forgot to turn it off
And so I watch as you walk into some bar called the Black Dog
It pierced new holes in my heart, you forgot to turn it off
And it hits me, I just don't understand
How you don't miss me in the Black Dog
When someone plays the starting line and you jump up
But she's too young to know this song
That was intertwined in the magic fabric of our dreaming
Old habits die screaming
I move through the world with a heart broken
My longings stay unspoken
And I may never open up the way I did for you
And all of those best laid plans, you said I needed a brave man
Then proceeded to play him until I believed it too
And it kills me, I just don't understand
How you don't miss me in the shower
And remember how my rain-soaked body was shaking
Do you hate me, was it hazy?
For a cruel fraternity I pledged and I still mean it
Old habits die screaming
Six weeks of breathing clean air, I still miss the smoke
Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke?
Now I wanna sell my house and set fire to all my clothes
And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons
Even if I die screaming
And I hope you hear it
And I hope it's shitty in the black dog
When someone plays the starting line and you jump off
But she's too young to know this song
It's a song that was answered to one in the tragic fabric of our dreaming
Cause tail between your legs you're leaving
I still can't believe it
Cause old habits die screaming
