[Verse 1]

I'm writing this to you in reverse

Someone better call a hearse

I can see it all from here

From just a few glimpses

Now that lightbulb's gone off

And it's pulling my wince

And now the lightbulb's gone off

I've seen it in your eyes

I've seen you blankly stare

And I want to show you how I love you

But there's nothing there

[Chorus]

I'm not standing here!

Oh I'm not standing here!

And I'm writing in reverse

I know it could be worse

I'm not standing here, I'm not standing here

(I'm not standing here, I'm not standing here)

(And I'm writing in reverse, I know it could be worse)

And I hear that famous song

And I hear that can't be wrong

[Verse 2]

No nothing was planned

You just can't help yourself

Some people are so easily shuffled and dealt

If there's only one of us you truly felt

We're getting you raw

And it feels real good

Although only briefly

Like high school poppers would

Will you lose a bit of yourself?

Will you lose a bit of yourself?

[Chorus]

I'm not standing here!

Oh I'm not standing here!

And I'm writing in reverse

I know it could be worse

I hear that famous song

And I hear that can't be wrong

All I know, is all I know

Yes, all I know, is all I know

Is all I know

[Verse 3]

I'm writing this to you in reverse

Someone better call a hearse (woo!)

I can see it all from here

From just a few glimpses

Now that lightbulb's gone off

And it's pulling my wince

And now the lightbulb's gone off

I've seen it in your eyes

And there's nothing there

There's nothing there

I wanna show you how I love you

I can see you blankly stare
