Loose Lips Sink Ships Lyrics - Singles - Hit The Lights

this frame once held my favorite picture 

but now it's empty, now it's broken 

and that's how you left my chest 

hallowed out by your hands 

where you dug a grave and laid 

your memory to rest 

i hate the way you say i told you so 

this is for all the wilted pedals on the floor 

this is for a waste of a dozen roses maybe more 

this should have ended with the kiss 

that you left on someone else's lips 

which turned my heart inside out 

you left it looking much the same 

a motionless mass of muscle and vain 

as i clean up this mess you've made 

so as i sing you to sleep 

i hope my ghost haunts your dreams 

lost in your memory 

as bad as it seems 

i hate the way you say i told you so 

this is for all the wilted pedals on the floor 

this is for a waste of a dozen roses maybe more 

this is for how you never deserved 

nothing more from a rose than the thorns 

so twist the knife 

fashion me counter clockwise 

turn back time 

forget you never were mine 

(with this knife i will cut 

the last piece of you from me 

the razor blades will separate 

any connections we've made 

but there's complications 

in the operation 

that keeps me from forgetting your face 

but come tomorrow i'll rid the sorrow 

from within my heart which you plagued)
