lyrics

Oh Scarlet
I wrote you a letter
I hope it gets better before it gets worse
Oh Scarlet
You hit the ground running
‘Cause you saw it coming
Had time to rehearse

And you spent the whole week
Trying to get on a pedestal
So they could have a clear view
Up your skirt
But when all of the gawking
Got bored of the shocking
You came back to me
To heal your hurt
Well put it in the corner
With all the mending, baby

I used to ride this
Now I don’t
‘Cause I always fall out
At the rocking of the boat

Oh Scarlet
I swallowed a bad seed
And now it’s in so deep
It’s built a hotel
Well I checked in
On my worst behavior
I broke all the windows
And they silently fell

I do moon over days
When things were so comfortable
I hope that we can get back there for more
But a layer of dust
Made a mess of our trust
And now the seams have pulled out
Fom how we’ve grown
Well put it in the corner
With all the mending, baby

Chorus
