Well don't expect help moving now or rides to the airport
And don't expect likes on your pics when you cut your hair short
'Cause I can't just pretend that everything is okay
You're asking why can't we just be friends?
Well I don't work that way
You just lost the greatest thing that will happen to you
And everything we built together's gone now so screw you
I know you're not that stupid so I hope you can tell
That baby I wish a lot for you
But I don't wish you well
I hope every night you dream about me
And the yearning drives you mad enough to scream without me
And you try to let it go and put it all behind you
And forget it but the photos on the wall remind you
And every song I wrote for you is stuck in your head
You hum along 'til suddenly you're struck with pure dread
You realize now as you lie awake
That you messed up by mistake
I hope you say my name
When you're in bed with him
Because we feel the same
And you can't escape the memories
'Cause my face keeps appearing in your fantasies
I hope it gives you hell
That your sheets can't ever seem to lose my smell
And no one wants to drunkenly call their ex
Delete my number but you keep all the texts
Yeah you keep all the texts
Well don't expect a corny little card on your birthday
No, not after you just destroyed my heart in the worst way
You plunged it into darkness like a day without sun
Well baby karma can be a bitch
When you're a bigger one
I hope every night you dream about me
And the yearning drives you mad enough to scream without me
And you try to let it go and put it all behind you
And forget it but the photos on the wall remind you
And every song I wrote for you is stuck in your head
You hum along 'til suddenly you're struck with pure dread
You realize now as you lie awake
That you messed up by mistake
I hope you say my name
When you're in bed with him
Because we feel the same
And you can't escape the memories
'Cause my face keeps appearing in your fantasies
I hope it gives you hell
That your sheets can't ever seem to lose my smell
And no one wants to drunkenly call their ex
Delete my number but you keep all the texts
Yeah you keep all the texts
All the feelings that you're trying to fight
Are too controlling and you need someone to shine a light
So you can see 'em but you tell your friends you're fine, alright
Even though you're close to blowing up like dynamite
'Cause you don't wanna be a burden
Even though you're hurting
You're not even certain what's behind the curtain
But it's haunting you and taunting you and making you do things that you don't wanna do
So you can't get a word in
And additionally they always say there's other fish in the sea
But if there's someone that you're wishing to be with unconditionally
It doesn't help, and I bet that other folks in your position agree
That if you lose the game you can't have someone else win it
It's makes you feel ashamed and messes with your self-image
So you go to therapy so you can delve in it for twelve minutes
Until you hit your mental health limit
I hope it drives you wild
(You threw away a good thing and it's causing you to spiral)
Into a dark depression
(That manifests itself in acts of violence and aggression)
And now your life's in ruins
(You can't escape your demons and they make you feel subhuman)
'Cause now that you're on your own
(Your dreams are all delusions and your nightmares are a war zone)
After the carnage you lower the drawbridge
And try to find a flag that's not all tattered and tarnished
You rip the fading post-it notes I wrote off of our fridge
And go to throw them all in the garbage
But then you read the top-most one
That says "I love you, hun"
And you remember how it felt when we had first begun
And the nostalgia bring you to tears
How could you throw away all these years?
Well don't expect help moving now or rides to the airport
And don't expect likes on your pics when you cut your hair short
'Cause I can't just pretend that everything is okay
You're asking why can't we just be friends?
Well I don't work that way
I hope you say my name
When you're in bed with him
Because we feel the same
And you can't escape the memories
'Cause my face keeps appearing in your fantasies
I hope it gives you hell
That your sheets can't ever seem to lose my smell
And no one wants to drunkenly call their ex
Delete my number but you keep all the texts
Yeah you keep all the texts
Yeah you keep all the texts
