I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
And this bottle of beast is taking me home

I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
But you're not alone, and you're not discreet
Make sure I know who's taking you home.

I'm reading your note over again,
There's not a word that I comprehend,
Except when you signed it
"I will love you always and forever."

As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
But as for me, I wish that I was anywhere with anyone
Making out.

I'm missing your laugh
How did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as you're pretending.

I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
I am alone
In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home

I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have speak,
And this bottle of beast is taking me home.

Well, as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out.
But as for me, I wish that I was anywhere with anyone
Making out.

[Repeat x4]
Your hair, it's everywhere.
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear.

    My Interpretation:i think this is a song about a guy who has just broken up with his girlfriend but is clearly not yet over her. the girl obviously fell in love with another guy that's why she left him. but despite that, he is still very much sprung on her... the feelings is so raw and so sincere you can feel Chris' agony just from the words of the song.

    General Comment:I am obsessed with this song. I can listen to it all day. My ex girlfriend cheated on me with 5 of my best friends and they all kept it from me. I finally found out when a true friend told me about it. She denied it and denied it but everyone knew. She blew up my phone and I just never talked to her again. This songs reminds me of that. Now my current girlfriend is showing the same traits as my ex...all I can think about is getting fucked over again. The truth is trust is everything and everyone lies.

    General Comment:chris was in a great relationship, and loved every second of it. then he messed up, and she tuck it in the wrong way, and she dumped him.. now he misses being in love, and sees that she has moved on, and its all messing him up. he keeps on seeing things that remind him of her and it makes him miss her more. he knows he messed up big time, and starts cutting himself and wishing he was dead. now he has to go weeks with these scars on his wrist, until they fade away. in the time his family sees it and is talked to by everyone, even friends.
    but eventually he'll get over her, and will find a better girl.
    at least thats what happened to me..

    General Comment:This page has become an emo forum. Weird. This song is so much better in the Legion of Doom mix with Brand New. Brand New is better, but they make DC sound ok too.
