Everything I love, I know I'll lose Everybody leaves, they always do
Kiss me softly, don't be honest You don't want me, but I know I caused it
I'll close the door, but oh, I'll never lock it Everything I lose has claw marks on it I still remember your hometown in August Hate that I love you if I'm being honest
I built that home, you burned it down Gave you the keys, you locked me out
Your voice haunts me, broke your promise You don't want me, and I always 'cause it
I'll close the door, but oh, I'll never lock it Everything I lose has claw marks on it I still remember your hometown in August Hate that I love you if I'm being honest Can't be your friend, laid my head on your chest Don't let this end, I will do it again Stay here, pretend that darling, you'll always be mine Oh, darling, didn't care if you lied
I'll close the door, and I promise I'll lock it Everything I love has claw marks on it I know I'll think of you every August Don't think I love you if I'm being honest
