Landlord Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I stood in the place where you fucked me and thought about how I'd never see you again

I still sleep in the room where you dumped me, voices still in the walls and I'll bring home new friends

Gotta shake off these nasty addictions, to gratification and self-flagellation

It's too late in the evening and it's too late in general
I miss having meaning and a distraction from myself

Want to be struck by new love's lightning all fucked up dripping wet and frightening

Or just have something that leaves me smiling to myself as I walk back home

[Chorus]
But I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
And I was less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
And you were less like your old self and more like your mother
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

You are less like a lover and more like a landlord

[Verse 2]
Said I'll be your emergency contact if you kiss me when you get back
I called you, I had to, went straight to your message bank

Wanted to make up for a lost time, make up for a lost cause
Would've stood tall, but for once in my life I wasn't the one who pushed for the fall

So one of these days I'm gonna drop dead and you'll only remember the nice things I said
So put your rose-coloured glasses on, pretend you're fine until I'm gone
And you can do whatever the fuck you want

[Chorus]
And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
And you were less of your old self and more like your mother
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

I was less like a lover and more like a landlord

[Verse 3]
I still sleep in the room where you dumped me
Write songs about how I'm never speaking to you again

Shouldn't make any difference, surroundings don't influence
The person that I think I am [x4]

[Chorus]
And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
And you were less of your old self and more like your mother
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

You were less like a lover and more like a landlord
