[Verse: Sparse guitar fingerpicking, amp hum in background, slow reverb tail] Heart's like a dog Yeah Gave it to ya and ya fed it once But now you're gone Yeah And it got hungry Girl So it ate the love [Verse: Slide guitar creeps in, tremolo deepens, low tom roll building mood] Now it's on a chain Barkin' at ghosts in the bed we made Where you slept with a snake I knew somethin' was goin' on The dog said so [Verse: Full band swells in slow motion, searing guitar bends, drums barely holding back] Whoa Now the tears won't fall They turned into steam Girl And all that steam's on my mirror So I wrote in it [Chorus: Guitar solo teases melody, then drops back to faint rhythm] You said you loved me But you didn't You said you didn't But you did [Verse: Organ pads fade in like breath, slow blues riff under vocals] Oh My soul is tired Girl I've been up all night Goin' over what you said And what you didn't And what you did And I keep writin' in it [Verse: Final repetition, voice raw and cracked, one string humming softly beneath] You said you loved me But you didn't You said you didn't But you did And I wrote in it You said you loved me But you didn't You said you didn't But you did
