Soul Custody (Soul Remix)

V6

[Verse 1] October put your number in my phone November put your toothbrush by the sink Four hours talking every fucking night Now four words cost a whole damn week Your little silver letter's in the drawer With the spare key you said I oughta keep You took the pictures off the bedroom wall Left the nails there staring back at me I moved the couch I changed the sheets Still step around your side when I leave Still buy that shit you like to drink Then get pissed off when I see it You tell your friends that I'm a problem I tell mine that we're through Then I turn the music down When the phone lights up with you [Pre-Chorus] You say you're coming for your things I know which shirt you're gonna wear I tell myself I'll let it ring Then I'm halfway down the stairs [Chorus] You're part of my soul That's the fucked up part Got you out my house Can't get you out my heart Three hundred fifteen miles Still know every turn You say don't come over Then ask when I'll return We don't know how to stay We don't know how to go Keep splitting up our lives Who gets custody of the soul [Post-Chorus] Who gets the soul Who gets the soul You got your shit Why can't you leave me whole [Verse 2] Yeah I took the long way past your street Like the extra gas would make it innocent Saw a car I didn't recognize Spent the whole ride home inventing shit Had somebody over Friday night Couldn't get your name out of my teeth She said you seem a little somewhere else I said work she said don't lie to me Now you're back outside at one fifteen Got your shoes off underneath my chair Saying this can't happen anymore While you're running fingers through my hair I should tell you take your jacket You should tell me get some sleep But you lean across the kitchen And I forget the speech [Pre-Chorus] You say you're only here tonight I say that's all I wanted too We both know how to make it sound Like something we can choose [Chorus] You're part of my soul That's the fucked up part Got you out my house Can't get you out my heart Three hundred fifteen miles Still know every turn You say don't come over Then ask when I'll return We don't know how to stay We don't know how to go Keep splitting up our lives Who gets custody of the soul [Bridge] I miss the way you reached for me Before we had to think Before a quiet drive back home Meant something on the brink We used to sit above the city Watching every window glow Now I watch you getting dressed Like there's something I should know You almost say it at the doorway I almost ask you not to leave Then you ask about your necklace And I say it's yours to keep [Build] Take the letter Take the chain Take the last box With your name I can carry That downstairs Tell me what to do With everywhere [Breakdown] Your side of the bed Your cup by the sink I got rid of the shit Still can't fucking think You keep the silver I'll keep the scars Why'd we call it forever If it wasn't ours [Final Chorus] You're part of my soul That's the fucked up part Got you out my house Can't get you out my heart Three hundred fifteen miles I should let that engine cool But your name is on my phone And I'm looking for my shoes We don't know how to stay We don't know how to go Keep splitting up our lives Who gets custody of the soul [Outro] You're part of my soul Yeah I'm working on that
