Pretty Violet, where you been?
I found you hurling in the bin
You know we used to be friends

I fell in love with you one day
The sweat was dripping down your face
Your hair was longer back then

And I hadn't seen you since
And I wondered where you've been

Somethings are better left unsaid

An overwhelming sense of guilt
I saw you cryin' in the pit
And now you're laying on me

The band was loud, you spilled your drink
We'd talk for hours 'bout your shit
Patching all the loose ends

Oo, how much longer till we're done?
Smoking cigs in my backyard
On the pillin' sofa
But, we both know how this ends

I'll starve myself until you open up
I'm keepin' my mouth shut
Sweeping it all underneath the rug
Until it's full of bugs

Scale the train tracks in the dark
I can hear you're deep in thought
You left a trail of matches
A few years later I have not
Heard from you or anyone
There's so much you could've said to you
There's so much you could've said to you
There's so much you could've said to you
There's so much you could've said to you

Somethings are better left unsaid
Oo-oo, ahh
