Pieces of paper stuck to the wall
Well the pictures are gone but the glue is not
Words that fell down, Okay I tore them off
And the flat paper notes of your favourite songs
The residue of what held together
Things that made you feel better
Is a constant reminder that you never felt good at all
Listening to laughter through the walls
You can run away, but how far can you go
When everywhere's the same, and nowhere feels like home
Every night you lay your head
Same four walls, different bed
Same ghosts standing over you
Sleepless dreams coming true
But you forget as soon as somebody walks into the room
But you forget as soon as somebody asks
How are you?
