And hung up on the door
Where you said you'd leave it
The notice that you'd gone
Too many days off shore
You said I hadn't done shit
I'd been away too long
And I did it all for you
I did it all for you
The money I was making
It didn't mean a damn thing
It only made things worse
The ink your hand was shaking
Wrote a happy ending
But this blessing is a curse
And I know
This house is not home
It's just a shell
Where our love used to live
These empty chairs
Where our love used to sit
My heart's a roof with nothing under it
Well I'm borrowing my smiles
From the empty glasses
Spread around our floor
Well I'm happily exiled
I'll pay back as time passes
For I know not what's in store
And I know
This house is not home
It's just a shell
Where our love used to live
And these empty chairs
Where our love used to sit
My heart's a roof with nothing under it
Well I'm losing sleep
I haven't been to bed for weeks
And these eyes won't close
I haven't done a thing but think
This restless mind should never drink
I've found the brink
The most that I sleep is when I blink
When I blink
And I know
This house is not home
It's just a shell
Where our love used to live
And these empty chairs
Where our love used to sit
My heart's a roof with nothing under it
And I know
This house is not home
It's just a shell
Where our love used to live
And these empty chairs
Where our love used to sit
My heart's a roof with nothing under it
My heart's a roof
