Bedroom Walls

I've been talking to my bedroom walls
'Cause I never had the guts to call
When I wonder how you're doing
Yeah, I've been having conversations with
Every burden that's been hanging off of my back
Boy, you didn't have to do it

And all my friends would swear I've never looked better
With this weight that I've been losing
Yeah, ever since you've gone
And I got real good convincing them
But the I-don't-care songs that I keep on writing
They couldn't be more wrong

I've been talking to my bedroom walls
'Cause I never had the guts to call
When I wonder how you're doing
Yeah, I've been having conversations with
Every burden that's been hanging off of my back
Boy, you didn't have to do it

I'ma tell my head to tell my chest
Just to hit me up whenever it gets through this
'Cause, honey, I can't watch
Myself just lie awake and rearrange
All the burning words you branded into my skin
No, I'm just not that strong

I've been talking to my bedroom walls
'Cause I never had the guts to call
When I wonder how you're doing
I've been having conversations with
Every burden that's been hanging off of my back
Boy, you didn't have to do it

So here I am
I haven't slept again
And the thought comes puncturing in
How the hell can I make you care?
If I was prettier
If I was skinnier
Would this constant pit in my chest subside?
Would my brain stop wasting my days
On all of your nights

I've been talking to my bedroom walls
'Cause I never had the guts to call
When I wonder how you're doing
Yeah, I've been having conversations with
Every burden that's been hanging off of my back
Boy, you didn't have to do it
Boy, you didn't have to do it
