The Old Apartment |
Broke into the old apartment |
This is where we used to live |
Broken glass, broke and hungry |
Broken hearts and broken bones |
This is where we used to live |
Why did you paint the walls? |
Why did you clean the floor? |
Why did you plaster over the hole I punched in the door? |
This is where we used to live |
Why did you keep the mousetrap? |
Why did you keep the dish rack? |
These things used to be mine |
I guess they still are, I want them back |
Broke into the old apartment |
Forty-two steps from the street |
Crooked landing |
Crooked landlord |
Narrow laneway filled with crooks |
This is where we used to live |
Why did they pave the lawn? |
Why did they change the locks? |
Why did I have to break in, I only came here to talk |
This is where we used to live |
How is the neighbour downstairs? |
How is her temper this year? |
I turned up your TV and stomped on the floor just for fun |
I know we don’t live here anymore |
We bought an old house on the Danforth |
She loves me and her body keeps me warm |
I’m happy there |
But this is where we used to live |
Broke into the old apartment |
Tore the phone out of the wall |
Only memories, fading memories |
Blending into dull tableaux |
I want them back |
