lyrics

I'm out of the frame
But the focus stays the same
Take the picture already 
It's still a god damn shame

You set me with another
And you set him with her too
And all the while I guess this feelings
Centered around you

And he's staring staring staring staring at your chest
And I'm still the one who's focused on the rest 

And you've known me for so long I forget that we never tried
But here I am now talking to you stuck outside

And I want you still holding through
When I tell you 
That I still want you
And it tastes a poison apple too

And now my car is laced
With the scent of her perfume
But I can't stand the smell
And I can't stand her too

It's later in the night
And I'm driving to his house
And close to 2 A.M. he told me he had to kick me out 

Now I'm driving around searching 
For a place where I can sleep 
What I didn't know is at 6 A.M.
You'd be back with that creep

And now I'm driving on and on and on looking for a spot
So I fell asleep at 3 by your house in the parking lot

And I want you still holding through
When I tell you 
That I still want you
And it tastes a poison apple too

You won't wait here for me
Will you tell me that you're by my side
And I still hear you're laughing 
Nearly every night, every night
