[Verse 1]

You don't realize it's the end, the truth you know you'll try to bend

'Cause losin' love is hard, especially when that love's a friend

Heart is racin', try to escape it

Take somethin' you love and blame it

Synonymous with what a mistake is

Now needle where this plate is

Till we try the, "You'll look fine"

But only tell yourselves do you feel the pain you try to hide

Try to call the other all the time; you get a dial tone

But the one who's on the other side was waitin' by the phone

You'll then say that you're fine alone; that's what you tell yourself

These people try to talk to you but you won't let 'em help

You tell 'em they don't understand, they never been through this

You tell 'em you're the only one that's had a love like this

And it feels like this for just about forever and a day

And finally you start to realize that you're all okay

Then you see I'm out with someone else and you can barely face it

Wanna take that person, replace 'em

Goin' through six degrees of separation


[Chorus]

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have messed up a little


[Verse 2]

These girls that I fuck with, all these women I've had luck with

If they ask me for relationships, I tell 'em, "Nah, you ain't it"

I could try to love and fake it, since I's every girl's replacement

If I had a chance to relive June a year, you know I'd take it

Ain't it funny though, took for granted when you're close

And all the people that have impact in my life, you have the most

You made me crazy, made me sad

Made me happy, made me mad

But in the end, it's crazy that you made me who I am

Told me to go start recording before I saw my own potential

Show me that the truest love ain't physical, yeah, it's all mental

For now the love I have will all reside inside a pencil

Till I find a carbon copy girl of her, don't think I'll settle

I know that I would change, particle time is all to blame

No, it wouldn't be the same, but give me a day back in the day

Think that I fucked up, 'cause some days it's still hard to take it

I'm in the sixth degree of separation


[Chorus]

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have messed up a little


[Outro]

No, no, there ain't no help, it's every man for himself

No, no, there ain't no help, it's every man for himself

No, no, there ain't no help, it's every man for himself

No, no, there ain't no help, it's every man for himself
