Atreyu - Right Side of the Bed

God! Why I can't I be this talented? This could be my divorce song, kind of the opposite of a wedding song. In case no one can tell, I am currently going through a divorce and a little salty, not that I have ever been chipper. Anyway here some more good stuff!

Listen to Atreyu


Right Side Of The Bed



And I can see her now
Dancing around, her drink in hand
All her baggage in tow
I just want to forget and let go
Of all the joy, all of the pain
I took your guilt and placed it into me
And now I kiss it goodbye
Our last dance ended fatall

Who's sleeping on my side of the bed tonight?
Have you ever cried so hard?
Baby you just died

And there she goes again
Another masquerade in false circumstance
She'll fuck you just for the taste
I just wish I could replace all the memories
Of what makes my blood run cold
And as your blood flows through me
I say goodbye to what we had

She came and went
I gnawed through my lip
Makeup smeared in her eyes
Each sob's a reason to say goodbye.

Sometimes when you're holding on
You'll never see the light
With flowers in her hair
Gazed upon with dead lovers eyes
She never looked so good
And I never felt so right
I felt so wrong

True the lyrics are closely related, I have atually never heard that song til this morning after I read this. Luckily my buddy happened to have "Wish" album. Robert Smith is definatly one of the greatests writers ever. Though they are obviously different styles of music.
