about
'Rent Free' is a song for when you're finally done with a relationship, and not looking back. With searing guitars and emotionally charged lyrics, it's the kind of tune to sing at the top of your lungs while driving with the windows down.
lyrics
Was I mistaken or were you future faking?
Talking up dreams of us that would never last
Writing cheques you knew you couldn't cash
Oh you could've saved me a whole lot of misery
It was so hard to let go
But now you're just one of those ghosts I used to know
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
Yeah, it's way past due
I've changed the locks on the door
Done all I can to kick you out of my history
Better have meant it when you said goodbye so easily
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
You said you were tired cos you were broken inside
I'd tried to help you move out from your past
Did you really fix yourself up so fast?
Or just find a new spark to live in your heart?
It was so hard to let go
But now you're just one of those ghosts I used to know
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
Yeah, it's way past due
I've changed the locks on the door
Done all I can to kick you out of my history
Better have meant it when you said goodbye so easily
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
Have you seen what's new with me?
Oh no, you wouldn't have, would you?
By the way, I'm doing just fine
What might've been ours is now all mine
Yeah, I brushed aside all of the signs
But you're still lying to yourself and it's time, it's time
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
Yeah, it's way past due
I've changed the locks on the door
Done all I can to kick you out of my history
Better have meant it when you said goodbye so easily
You're not living rent free in my head anymore
