Woke up to find I lost my mind
Lost heart, lost nerve, I lost my favorite word, Emily
I take my cigarettes, I give 'em a smoke
Oh god, my heart feels froze
I've lost something it seems
I've misplaced my favorite thing, Emily
Where does love go if it cannot find a home
One moment here then gone with no forwarding address
Love no longer has a house or residence in flesh
I take the keys, I get in the car
To out run this, man, I'd have to go real far
Where mercy wears lace and bottles are thieves
Which of these took you from me, Emily?
I face myself but there's a draft inside
Parts of me drowned in perpetual tide
I want to call names, I want to throw things around
But no bar can buy forgiveness, another round for Emily
Where does love go if it cannot find a home
One moment here then gone with no forwarding address
Love no longer has a house or residence in flesh
I go in the bedroom, turn on the light
It's like an empty altar, no angel in sight
Religion with no temple, no place to take my worship to
No God for my eyes to see, nor fruit to lay at the feet of Emily.
Gone
Gone
