white elephant

Singer:basement

remember when we went to the city?

you held my hand as we got off the train. we just talked for hours

as we sheltered out from the rain. i can't sleep and i can't eat and i can't focus on this. and everything you said to me was just a lie

something to make me feel good inside. nothing hurts harder than finding out the truth about the one thing you thought you knew. i can't sleep and i can't eat and i can't focus on this. missing you feels like breathing.
