You called out my name at the opening party
We met the next weekend and you bought me coffee
Then Brooklyn, and Sweet Ups, and four sips of gin
You threw me your keys and I let you in

To my first New York city apartment
You helped paint them walls, but got dirt on the carpet
But I didn't mind 'cause you're all that I wanted

Ignored broken glass, forgave each small sin
Each time you knocked, I let you in

To my heart and then into my head
You bruised up my legs in my one person bed
Your actions fell bedsides, sweet nothings you said

With every fight, I let you in
No matter how late, I buzzed you in

In, inside
I find you waiting where I used to hide
In, in, inside
I can't chase you out, though I've tried
And I've tried inside

I step on the stage, my head finally clear
Familiar laugh from house left rings in my ear
I'm scanning the audience thinking you might be here

Haven't talked in sometime, don't know where you've been
Security's gone, you let yourself in

In, inside
I find you waiting where I used to hide
In, in, inside
I can't chase you out, though I've tried
And I've tried inside

In, in, inside
I find you waiting where I used to hide
In, in, inside
I can't chase you out, though I've tried
And I've tried inside

What could this broken love be all about?
I've let you in, now I can't get you out
