| I think we’re lying to each other
|
| You call this smolder but it’s smother
|
| You tell me stories, you speak in damage
|
| You’re showing me just how to take advantage
|
| And it starts to burn 'cause I’m a cheater
|
| I could use you up and not feel a thing
|
| But tonight I’m not the same depleter
|
| This common ground you’re suffering
|
| You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy
|
| Memories we use to just go on and destroy
|
| Every might have been, every kindness shown
|
| Raised to feel unlovable in your home, sick home
|
| I’ll be honest, why I came here
|
| Well, the truth is cloudier than clear
|
| I can lead you out of these woods
|
| That terrorized me 'cause this is where I stood
|
| When it used to burn with disapproval
|
| I never measured up, I never made the grade
|
| I can’t heal your pain but the truth
|
| Will help you set it down, set it down
|
| You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy
|
| Echos from your past are not your measure of joy
|
| 'Cause there’s so much love in the great big world
|
| Even for sad little boys and Millhouse girls
|
| You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy
|
| Echos from your past are not your measure of joy
|
| 'Cause there’s so much love in the great big world
|
| Even for sad little boys and Millhouse girls
|
| Millhouse girls |
