lyrics

The last time I drove by you were waiting outside
You would have died if you knew what was in store
A crumbling structure with no one to love her
Love doesn't live here anymore

Peel back the ivy and peer inside
Count the holes in the hardwood hallway floor
Time tattered feelings hanging tired from the ceilings
Love doesn't live here anymore

The foundation we trusted is shifting
There's a dead bolt rusted to the front door
Ring the bell but no one is listening
Love doesn't live here anymore

The paint is peeling and revealing that it's well past its prime
No one's tried to hide it like before
Hope slipped off its hinges and hangs with indifference
Love doesn't live here anymore

The foundation we trusted is shifting
There's a dead bolt rusted to the front door
Ring the bell but no one is listening
Love doesn't live here anymore
