Mulder, It’s Me (Something Terrible’s Happened)

[Verse 1]
Waking up to your empty bed
And it was still warm where you’d slept
Just like the boy who said the plus sign wasn’t accurate
I questioned everything you said
But still listened to every word of it

[Verse 2]
And I sat and watched the bin men empty all the bins and return them to the pavement
Cause there was nothing else I could do
But wait for you

[Verse 3]
We still live on the same line
And you live in a doll house right near mine
The trucks still shake my bedroom walls
You can hear the neighbours through yours
Their laughter is unbearable

[Verse 4]
And the stars all aligned
And the sky made way for the sunrise
But you were gone before it was light
Never admitting I was right

[Verse 5]
I thought you were happy for a while
When I was happy for a while
Sometimes I think
Is there more to life than talking politics?
Just sitting out the back tryna get by
I think that your happier preparing for the empire to fall
And if god was one of us he’d probably be on the doll
