lyrics

Love me like you did last Monday
On the cold beach along the Great Highway
Where we sat on concrete walls that cover Beach Chalet

Love me like you did last August
When we wrote things back and forth to each other
Like there was no tomorrow, and then next day we broke up

It's not that I'm trying to feel alienated but
You put me on hold, you put me on restock
You had me on back order with the worst
And guess what? It's your fault that I've got a mouthful of words I can't understand

Hold me like you did last winter
At the pet store across from San Mateo
Where you said I wasn't like the rest, but I still felt 15th best

It's not that I'm trying to ruin your whole life but
You put me on hold, you put me on restock
You had me on back order with the worst
And guess what? It's your fault that I've got a mouthful of words I can't understand

So what am I gonna do to you?
I'm feeling violent like you do
You're perfect like you were back then
I'll never be the same again

So love me like you did whenever
When you broke me with words from a letter
And it hurt so bad

So what am I gonna do to you?
I'm feeling violent like you do
You're perfect like you were back then
I'll never be the same again
