about

Joke title, I swear! This song is about how sometimes memories aren't really the same as the actuality of what happened. It was inspired by a drive one day when I noticed that an abandoned building that an ex and I stole some gigantic signs at had been torn down, it was bitter-sweet.

lyrics

Well, I’m glad they tore down the buildings
Where we once stole the signs
For your bedroom
Or for mine

Well don’t offer your confessions
I did not ask for them
I know just where you’ve been
Don’t remind me again

And I said
“Remember when
We were so
Happy?”

And you said
“No I don’t”

And I said
“I remember
The way you used to
Smile”

And you said
“Well, fuck, I never smiled”

I know the floors must be getting
Pretty dirty in that
House we never had
We said we’d have

And I know the dishes must be piling
Up in the sink
We never shared
We'll never share


And I said
“Remember when
We were so
Happy?”

And you said
“No I don’t”

And I said
“I remember
The way you used to
Smile”

And you said
“Well, fuck, I never smiled”

So don’t ask how I got so bitter
And I wont ask how you got so sweet
Lying in the street
While suitors come and kneel at your
Feet.
