Tom Crocker - House For Two Lyrics

I pictured a house for two, I saw it on the news
A daisy on the window sill, the door was painted blue
In a forest far away, I will keep you someplace safe
Far away from all the two-faced serpents with their tongues
I was standing in the corner, and I could hear it when they sung
I was brave and I was cunning, I was yours then I was nothing
And my bones are filled with regret
I know what you meant, but I heard what you said
These stone streets have done more for me than you ever could
While you sit in your tower, your crown made of thorns
You decay by the hour, I settle the scores
And your typewriter lies, stick around after life
I will be there when the birds leave their homes
And they circle the sky so they don't feel alone
In the night without a purpose, I hope that it was worth it
And my bones are filled with regret
I know what you meant, but I heard what you said
These stone streets have done more for me than you ever could
And my home, our house on Mars
I know where you are but I don't know where to start
I don't have the heart since you took it and sold it for parts
You twisted the knife in my back, in my spine
Burning both ends but you blew out the light
I took it to heart and it tore me apart
But I let the cut simmer and I turned it to art
I got drunk in the valley, a cold and dark alley
I'm lying on the curb and I'm dreaming of Cali
Cause one day I'll get out of this town
And I'll turn it around
Yeah, you wish you were around
I still feel like I've got so much more
You played your part, ingenue with the heart
Till the curtains came down, I was left in the dark
You played your part, ingenue with the heart
I was left in the dark
