melanie martinez - rocking horse lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m in the process of counting sheep
but they’re all so bl++dy
my hushed little baby still makes a peep
there’s a ghost in the nursery
i’m haunted even when you’re never there
and i’m taunted by your teddy bear
like it’s talkin’ and it’s asking me
why you never came home

[pre+chorus]
i missed the shower
i miss your cradle
i miss your carriage
i miscarriaged
i miscarriaged, mis+miscarriaged
and you never came home

[chorus]
back and forth, back and forth
move back and forth like a rocking horse
that rocking horse that your daddy bought you
that you never saw goes back and forth
back and forth, back and forth
move back and forth like a rocking horse
that rocking horse that your daddy bought you
that you never saw goes back and forth
[verse 2]
i’m in the process of apologies
there’s a husband who doesn’t know that i’m guilty
there’s a harsh little secret inside of me
and a ghost in the nursery
oh, honey, you’ll never see your son become a star
or the money you spent on that box of cigars
and i’m sorry you never got to hand them out

[pre+chorus]
this is for all the horses never given a horse
that never grew to be porsches
this is for all the divorces that were caused by abortions
babies having babies and babies having abortions

[bridge]
rockin’ horse, rockin’ horse
ooh, back and forth
you never came home
rockin’ horse, rockin’ horse
ooh, back and forth
and you never came home
[chorus]
back and forth, back and forth
move back and forth like a rocking horse
that rocking horse that your daddy bought you
that you never saw goes back and forth
back and forth, back and forth
move back and forth like a rocking horse
that rocking horse that your daddy bought you
that you never saw goes back and forth
