Lyrics
How come you didn´t mention you were going away
The speaker questions why the person didn't inform about their departure.
For the last three weeks I´ve waited on you train
The speaker has been waiting for the person's return for the past three weeks.
And now I have to get away my self
Feeling the need to distance oneself, possibly due to emotional reasons.
Redecorate our house on Fragile Lane

I´m thinking about new mirrors, thirteen different plans

To get your scent out of my bed and heart
Desire to remove the person's scent from the speaker's bed and heart.
New chairs and windowsills, new faces and a mask

The past out of the living room to drag
Removing reminders of the past from the living room.
They say it lasts forever don't worry about that

Just be there in the morning, don't spend your nights

I kind of think of you and me from time to time

It ends up getting silly, it tends to drive me mad

It´s not as if I´d like to have you as my wife

It´s more a nursing thing I had in mind
