Dry Eye

Caught up in the locks of your hair
Prisoner of the perfume that you wear
I’m not trying to say
You’re not where it’s at for me
I’m just getting a little scared
Tangled in the sheets of your bed
Bending underneath your heavy head
I should learn not to ask
But your mouth, it tastes like broken glass
And how long is seven years from today?
All I ever wanted was somebody to love
At least that’s what I used to say
But be careful of the wishes
That crawl across your lips
You may choke on them someday
Trying to be as quiet as a mouse
Waiting for your lungs to run out
Do you remember when
You said you’d never cry again?
Now there’s not a dry eye in this house
All you ever wanted was somebody to love
At least that’s what you used to say
But be careful of the wishes
That crawl across your lips
You may choke on them someday
