Penthouse lyrics
This song is about a couple who moved to a penthouse with a view of the city, only to eventually have the relationship fall apart. Despite trying to make the best of things, their connection was never strong enough to survive the transition. The lyrics reflect on the pain of packing up and the realization that the relationship isn't working, with the singer reflecting on the loneliness of a past love who has been lost.

We moved to a place with a view off of eight avenue after we said I do
And we watched cars of bachelorettes, 2 AM cigarettes, and traffic headed downtown
And the interstate was so loud, there was a lot it had to drown outWe played the part five nights, but we were never there on the weekends, baby
We got along real nice, but when I left town, did you hate me?
One day, the curtain started coming down
I changed the second we were moving out
I guess wrong can look alright
When you're playing home in a penthouse, babyI bought the house with a fence, enough room for some kids, a backyard for dibs
And I thought that would make it all better, and maybe forever wouldn't feel like the walls closing in
'Cause how does that even make sense?
Now that I think about it, it never didWe played the part five nights, but we were never there on the weekends, baby
We got along real nice, but when I left town, did you hate me?
One day, the curtain started coming down
You changed the second we were moving out
I guess wrong can look alright
When you're playing home in a penthouse, baby
'Cause we were playing home in a penthouse, babyIt hurts putting shit in a box
And now we don't talk
And it stings rolling up the welcome mat
Knowing you got halfI kissed someone new last night
But now I don't know where you're sleeping, baby
We got along real nice, until I wanted out, now I know you hate me
One day, the curtain started coming down
We changed the second we were moving out
I guess wrong can look alright
When you're playing home in a penthouse, baby
Oh, we were playing home in a penthouse, babyI just bought the house that we saw
You said it was wrong
I wanted it all along
