Verse 1: You left your lighter on my bedside table Said you'd come back but I know you're not able To love someone who tastes like yesterday's wine But darling, you knew that when you said you were mine Chorus: So I'll smoke your memory down to the filter Watch my hands shake, watch my voice wither They say I should want to get better But I'm too busy writing you another letter That I'll never send, no I'll never send Verse 2: The mirror tells me what my friends won't say That I look like hell in the light of day But nighttime suits me, yeah it suits me fine When I can pretend you're still on the other line Chorus: So I'll smoke your memory down to the filter Watch my hands shake, watch my voice wither They say I should want to get better But I'm too busy burning up your sweater That you left behind, yeah you left behind Bridge: They can stage their interventions Fill me full of good intentions But they don't know how you kissed me Don't know how you'll always haunt me Final Chorus: So I'll drink your memory straight, no chaser Love's just another form of self-erasure And maybe someday I'll get better But tonight I'm just your ghost, your haunted treasure And that's just fine, yeah that's just fine
