lyrics

The broken heart's on you,
The broken hand's on me.
And so are all those nights where I can't stand or speak.
When you're holdin hands for direction, not affection,
You go out lookin for answers, pass out with more questions.

Went out for a drink, get some revenge at least.
It's too bad liquid courage doesn't apply to me.
Went out for a smoke, tryin hard not to choke.
Was yellin at the sky the whole night and I came home hoarse and broke.

You told me not to call you "Darlin" anymore.
Well don't you flatter yourself, I'd use the same name for a whore.
And if I meant that little to you, after all this time,
Well you're just another rusty staple on a telephone pole,
The shit that's left behind.

You're crazy if you think, I'm gonna answer that phone.
I'd rather lay right here bloodied up and crushed, and all alone.
Cause if I learned one thing, from all those ups and downs,
It's that they don't add up and I know you never wanted me around.

You told me not to call you "Darlin" anymore.
Well don't you flatter yourself, I'd use the same name for a whore.
And if I meant that little to you, after all this time,
Well you're just another rusty staple on a telephone pole,
The shit that's left behind.

The faces come and go, but my staples stay.
I just hope you realize what you left when you went away.
