My House Lyrics


He was like my reflection but I always turned away
Gave all of my attention to love that led me to pain
Chasing dead ends was the game that I knew best
‘Til I surrendered and who would’ve guessed?

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, Oh
Yeah that’s how it’s supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don’t try, jumping the line
‘Cause I used to tell him no, no, no, no, no
When he asked me out
Then I said “fine let’s go”
And he never left my house

He gave me pretty flowers, and I gave him empty threats
I was afraid of falling, but now he’s my safety net
Chasing dead ends was the way I survived
But if that’s how I’d find him, then I’d do it twice

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, Oh
Yeah that’s how it’s supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don’t try, jumping the line
‘Cause I used to tell him no, no, no, no, no
When he asked me out
Then I said “fine let’s go”
And he never left my house

He’s got all of my heart
And half of my room (Me and my guy on the same side)
He’s lived in my mind
Even before I, before I ever knew

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, Oh
Yeah that’s how it’s supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don’t try, jumping the line
‘Cause I used to tell him no, no, no, no, no
When he asked me out
Then I said “fine let’s go”
And he never left my house
no, no, no, no, no
When he asked me out
Then I said “fine let’s go”
And he never left my house
