roommates

Ooh
Oh, you were freaking out on Scott Avenue
We agreed to break up soon
Ooh, I told your roommate
To go and take care of you
Well, didn't he learn to?
I don't wanna see
I don't wanna see it, baby
'Cause I remember when you said it was crazy
That you haven't been single since 10th grade
Maybe you should try it out
But you didn't even have to leave your house
To give up being free
You just walked up the stairs
And let your roommate be me
You said you needed to find yourself
But you only found his throat
I'm just sorry that you can't let yourself be alone
(Let yourself be alone)
Hmm, in Echo Park
I lived with you and him, eight months
We used to hear him get off
Hmm, looking through photographs of you
He took a lot (took a lot)
Now you help him get off
But I don't wanna see
I don't wanna see it, baby
'Cause I remember when you cried, complaining
That he's a sexist and condescending
Tell me, is he now?
'Cause you didn't even have to leave your house
To give up being free
You just walked up the stairs
And let your roommate be me
You said you needed to find yourself
But you only found his throat
I'm just sorry that you can't let yourself be alone
Be alone
Oh, I dare you to be alone
Please just be alone
I'm so alone
I'm so alone
