She carved her initials down into the stone
You see 'em every time you come home
Grown a flower she planted last April
You forgot their names, they're still growin' there anyway
A button from a sweater that you shouldn't have dried
She cut the tags from her clothes, so how would you know
You flip through a book, a note floats to the floor
Her slanted cursive's a stinging reminder that you're no more
Oh, and you ask yourself, where'd it all go wrong?
Then out of anger you claim you knew it all along
All along
A clock with no face, her side of the bed
Smells like shampoo mixed with perfume
A turquoise necklace from a Tucson road trip
Once hung from her neck, now here quietly it sits
Now, what do you do with all her unwanted things?
So tightly you cling to them, but you're one of them just the same
Just the same
Film's in the fridge and it's keepin' cold
She took pretty pictures on the camera you loaned her
You won't see again
Now, what do you do with all her unwanted things?
So tightly you cling to them, but you're one of them just the same
Oh, and you ask yourself where it all went wrong
Then out of anger you claim you knew it all along
You unwanted thing
