Doghouse

I've got Regrets

It's okay to want some breathing room

Isn't that what you asked me to give you?

I've got regrets

Breathing down my neck,

and it hurts me each time I think of you

I'm setting up camp in this doghouse

You don't understand how easy it is for the wrong words to come out

Maybe someday I'll tie up my mouth

Maybe someday I'll tie up my mouth

It's okay to take some time to find you

Confidence is what I've always tried to give to you

Not seen you in the flesh,

but I can still feel your head on my chest,

and it's worth it just to think of you

I'm setting up camp in this doghouse

You don't understand how easy it is for the wrong words to come out

Maybe someday I'll tie up my mouth

Maybe someday I'll tie up my mouth
