I spent the summertime
Fighting my wandering eyes
Biting on my tongue to pass the afternoon
Make-up shower sex
Thinking 'bout what came next
In an empty house the night before you moved
Wouldn't take that much to put the blame on me now
I woke up Christmas Eve
Tired of waking up
With a rotted hand still sleeping on your hip
You said you never felt a rush like that
You never found a place so warm
Wouldn't take that much to kill you in my grip
But it all amounts to just a couple kids now
Touching you whether we live or die
Now that we've been away for so long
I know you're smiling but you won't see mine
I never meant to take it that far
Keep piling it on
Keep piling it on
Until we've moved on
I got a little bit after all
Had a little too much too soon
Wouldn't take that much to put the blame on you
I'm a little bit older now
Holding this weight wore my shoulders out
And it feels so good to finally put it down
Keep piling it on
Keep driving away
When everything decays
Keep piling it on
