Lyrics

Waking up from another Thursday night
With nothing left on the bedside table
Except for half a joint and a tea bag
And all of my leaves gone bad
I've been recounting all my weekends
That you stayed in my head
Since the night that you you slept in my bed
And left for a shower
And washed off my power

But hey, you knew very well
That I would never wash off the smell
So I washed my sheets with laundry powder
Tried essential oils with lavender
Spoke to girls and boys who gave mе flowers
But they werеn't you or your cheap perfume

I swear I smelled a candle in K-Mart
So I stayed in the fragrance aisle for far too long
Just hoping that I'd see you
Find the source to all my issues

But they, they knew very well
That I would spare no expense for the smell
But when I came in, they'd all sold out
So I washed my sheets with laundry powder
Tried essential oils with lavender
But they weren't you or your cheap perfume

I promised myself I'd ask if I saw you
'Cause I tried all of the testers in all the department stores
With ylang ylang and cypress
But none of it just quite fit

And then you
You didn't know very well
And you'd forgotten the brand and the smell

Said you don't know where you bought it from
You don't wear it anyway anymore
Got a new one now from your girlfriend
Oh, you said it's just some cheap perfume
