An after-breakup song.

"Called to see if your back
Was still aligned and your sheets
Were growing grass all on the corners of your bed"

Called to see how you were doing, make sure you were doing okay.

"But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves
It has too much to do with me
And secretly I want to bury in the yard
The grey remains of a friendship scarred"

But there is too much remorse for what happened between you and me, and honestly I don't even want to be friends anymore.

"You told us of your new life there
You got someone comin' around
Gluing tinsel to your crown
He's got you talking pretty loud"

You say you have a new boyfriend. He's making you happy. And a little obnoxious.

"You say you're still in love
If it's true what can be done"

You tell me you're still in love with me, but if that's true, there's nothing we can do about it.

"You tested your metal of doe's skin and petals
While kissing the lipless
Who bleed all the sweetness away"

You tried to find someone new by trying to be with every new person you could. But now the sweetness has left love.
