Back at this old house
Sinking stairs, the grass is dead
Turn the key, suddenly
There's a chill, my hair stands on end
If you're gone why do I hear you in my ear?
This house is haunted
And I can't go back
To the way that it was like before
I'll burn it all down
From the roof to the ground
Just to silence the sound
Of my heart beating under the floor
Not the superstitious type
My mind's playing tricks on me
Visions of a past life, ghosts of who we used to be
If you're gone why do I see you standing there?
This house is haunted
And I can't go back
To the way that it was like before
I'll burn it all down
From the roof to the ground
Just to silence the sound
Of my heart beating under the floor
What's that sound?
Tap tap tap
I cut it up but it keeps coming back
I buried it deep but it keeps coming back
I hear it in my sleep but it keeps coming back
This house is haunted
And I can't go back
To the way that it was like before
I'll burn it all down
From the roof to the ground
Just to silence the sound
Of my heart beating under the floor
Burn it to the floor

Past Tense

The engine stalls
With a shudder and whine
The sun sinks down
Like a muddy wheel
Our words spin round
And round and round
Digging deep
A screech in the night
Fumbling for a light
Without you
Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this could end
I never thought we could be
Past tense
Give it a shove
I'll try to accelerate
From this impasse
If it's not too late
Rain streaming down
Arms that forgot
How to hold
They only know
How to push heavy things
Away
Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this could end
I never thought we could be
Past tense
Waiting on you
I'm waiting on you
Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this would end
I never thought we would be
Past tense

Anniversary

Another year is almost over
No wiser but we're so much older
I take your hand but it feels colder
What's on your mind when you say that everything is fine?
I wish we could celebrate this year
Spilled drinks and holding back the tears
I wish we could celebrate
Instead we just complicate
I wish we could celebrate this year
Some sparks burn bright
And others smolder
You turn your back
To my cold shoulder
Roman candle screams in the night
It's a shell now but it once had heat
And so much light
I wish we could celebrate this year
Spilled drinks and holding back the tears
I wish we could celebrate
Or even communicate
I wish we could celebrate this year
It's so hard
To put the pieces back together
In another heart
I wish we could celebrate this year
Spilled drinks and holding back the tears
I wish we could celebrate
Instead we just complicate
I wish we could celebrate this year

Final Girl

I've got a hunch that something's
Lurking round the bend
I'm running fast but every road turns
To a dead end
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
Your final girl
I'm hanging by a thread
It's looking pretty grim
Not sure how I'll get out of
This mess I've gotten in, yeah
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
Your final girl
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
This might be the end of the world
But I could be your final girl
Woah oh, woah oh
