The apartment we won't share

I wonder what sad wife lives there
A        Dbm     D              A
Have the windows deciphered her stares?

Do the bricks in the walls know to hide the affairs?

The dog we won't have is now one I would not choose

The daughter we won't raise still waits for you

The girl I won't be is the one that's yours

I hope you shortly find what you long for

You're a full-fledged socialist, I go by a new name
    A                Dbm   D             A
The filthy joke that won't burrow in the corner
        D              A                  E   E
Of your smirking lips, I mourn it to this day

The story we won't tell is my greatest fantasy

The passion I won't feel again isn't lost on me

The son you never wanted is the wound your father left
        D              A     Bm               E
And the mother I won't be is probably for the best
     A              Dbm               D              A
Your demons I won't meet, now someone else's word to keep
               G             C
I'm sure she's beautiful and sweet
Bm
Not what I wanted

E           A
But what we need
