lyrics

The closets are left open at night, but we keep the front door locked shut. Every inhabitant is free to move through every room, but can't escape. The 2 of us live well enough together, the 3rd exists without complaint because he feeds for free and can come alive at most anytime in anything.

He enters in the light of the TV screen and billows in the stale smoke of our pipe. I watch as he lingers by my door and I wait and I wait and I wait...

When I feel weak, I let him take over me. Controls me as I'm silent asleep. What I say, what I am, it's all him, who you see I don't know. Could you tell me please? Could you tell me please?

Because I'm not sure I remember who I was when we last met. Did my voice sound strong, or did my smile seem strained? Did my smile seem strained? Because I'm not sure I remember who I was when we last met. Did my voice sound strong, or did my smile seem strained? Did my smile seem strained?

Sifting through pages, scanning every open room hoping to lock eyes with a soul as wavering, detached as mine...

Because I'm not sure I remember who I was when we last met. Did my voice sound strong, or did my smile seem strained? Did my smile seem strained? Because I'm not sure I remember who I was when we last met. Did my voice sound strong, or did my smile seem strained? Did my smile seem strained?

Tell me, who was I when you loved me? Tell me, who was I when you loved me? Did you ever even really love me? Did you ever even really love me... love me?

Because I'm not sure I remember who I was when we last met. Did my voice sound strong, or did my smile seem strained? Did my smile seem strained?
