[Chorus]
I'm in a glass house, digging up stones
Fossils of us that I should not throw
I heard that people don't change, they grow
So, I'm taking good care of your dinosaur bones
[Verse 1]
In the nightclubs, they play the same songs
That made us fall in love
Silent memories, intrusive thoughts
That's how we keep in touch
And I saw ya in the background
Of an old VHS tape
Reminded me of our hometown
Our high school, our heartbreak
I found the note you wrote me
On a faded yellow Post-it
But it blew right through the door
I guess that you never closed it
[Chorus]
I'm in a glass house, digging up stones
Fossils of us that I should not throw
I heard that people don't change, they grow
So, I'm taking good care of your dinosaur bones
[Verse 2]
What does it feel like
To want
But not to need love? (Not to need)
Now that the bruises
Are gone for good, well
I see we're losing touch
And I heard it from your brother
That you moved to Minnesota
That the address on the license
That I found under my sofa
That says you're still where I left you
Frozen in the photo
1320 Riverside
But you're not coming home, so
I put it in a Ziploc
Stuff it in a shoebox
I hide it in the attic
With all the things that I pretend I lost
[Chorus]
I'm in a glass house, digging up stones (Digging up stones)
Fossils of us that I should not throw (Should not throw)
I heard that people don't change, they grow (They grow)
So, I'm taking good care of your dinosaur bones (Of your dinosaur bones)4
[Post-Chorus]
(Taking good care)
(I-I'm taking good care of your dinosaur, your dinosaur)
[Bridge]
I think I left a necklace
I wonder if you kept it
Somewhere in your apartment (Somewhere in your apartment)
With all the other relics
Back where it all started
Before I knew it ended
[Chorus]
I'm in a glass house, digging up stones
Fossils of us that I should not throw
I heard that people don't change, they grow
So, I'm taking good care of your dinosaur—
[Chorus]
I'm in a glass house, digging up stones (Digging up stones)
Fossils of us that I should not throw (I should not throw)
I heard that people don't change, they grow (Yeah)
So, I'm taking good care of your dinosaur bones
[Post-Chorus]
(Taking good care)
I'm taking good care of
(Taking good care)
Of your dinosaur, your dinosaur
(Taking good care)
Oh
(I'm taking good care of your dinosaur, your dinosaur)
[Outro]
I know I left that necklace
I wonder if you kept it
Somewhere in your apartment
With all the other relics
Back where it all started
Before our whole world ended
