of course, you think you can just come back home
bring your bags, packed like they were when you left
and in two days, i bet you'll be freakin out
and wherever you go you know you'll bring your storm with you

and now you’re flooding my basement
and the water’s so cold, with the level rising
and i’m just wishing you’d be swept elsewhere
and now it’s flooding the kitchen
with a downpour so steady
i don’t know when it starts or when it ends
if you don’t fix it, i’ll be drowning

of course, you think it all gets forgotten
it’s all fine, but you cannot crack a smile
and you’re angry, when the energy rises to meet you
like the liferafts are disrespectful to the sea

but now you’re flooding my basement
and the water’s so cold, with the level rising
and i’m just wishing you’d be swept elsewhere
and now it’s flooding the kitchen
with a downpour so steady
i don’t know when it starts or when it ends
if you don’t fix it, i’ll be drowning
if you don’t fix it, i’ll be drowning

we kept it, your jersey, don’t care if it’s murder
i’d forgive you if it were something you regret
we missed you, and still you, are part of the family
but it’s not going to be easy to forget
that everything you say is made to make me doubt myself
that everything you say makes me doubt myself
