Perfume

The smell of her perfume still lingers in my bedroom
And it stimulates my senses makes me weak
Now I lie here awake in the rubble, in the wake
Picking up the pieces, I tremble and I shake
You're deaf to the sound of the words that leave my mouth
It's hard when it all feels so personal
Setting myself up to be torn down
I like to pretend it doesn't hurt at all
Trying to forget it all right now

And I still have those sketches that you scribbled in my notebook
I'll take one last look before I turn the page
Now I lie here awake in the rubble in the wake
A new page leads to new mistakes
Those memories I'll never quite erase
It's hard when it all feels so personal
Setting myself up to be torn down
I like to pretend it doesn't hurt at all
Trying to forget it all right now

Work out my frustration on the walk to union station
Thinking how I wish I never learned your name
Now I lie here awake in the rubble in the wake
I did my best to plead my case
And we could try but it's just not the same

It's hard when it all feels so personal
Setting myself up to be torn down
I like to pretend it doesn't hurt at all
Trying to forget it all right now

It's hard when it all feels so personal
Setting myself up to be torn down
I like to pretend it doesn't hurt at all
Trying to forget it all right now
