vermont ave Songtext
von ghostdaughter

I wish we were friends when we were kids
I′ve gotten so much older now... I'll deal with it
Like when I didn′t recognize my mother wearing a wig
And I made her cry, gave her something else to fix
I'm so selfish but maybe that's just growing up
Fill my body up with innocence until I throw it up
And my chest hurts from never being what you want
And I can never sleep right, I′m shaking until dawn


But when I′m gone, don't go and find no one better
I know I′m selfish but I promise I'm trying
When I′m gone, if my ghost wants to hold you, let her
I'm so selfish when I call you crying

I miss stealing wine and crushing pills in our drinks
Now my apartment′s mostly mirrors, I just stare at the sink
And I feel so alone out here
It never rains, I can't see stars, I end up drowning in fear
Pace around inside a box until I'm buried in one
You were my daylight, now I′m afraid of the sun
I′m hanging up above the freeway, I can't block out the noise
You′re telling me to calm down like I ever had a choice. I'm sorry


When I′m gone, don't go and find no one better
I know I′m selfish but I promise I'm trying
When I'm gone, if my ghost wants to hold you, let her
I′m so selfish when I call you crying
