[Verse 1]

Deep horrible blues

Watching you work the room

There's a frequency of trouble

In the car to Malibu

I'll be crying on your milk-white sheets

Hoping one day we're married

In a house you'll build around me

[Pre-Chorus]

I guess I believe

I believe in old-fashioned things

Imagining us

But the longer I stay, I can see you

What's happening? What's happening?

[Chorus]

Welcome to my Melrose meltdown

Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down

We really fucked it up in diamonds and drugstores

That's what we came for

And when you get it, you got what you need

[Verse 2]

Handing out gold stars for tailor-made behaviour

I can see your demons shining like prizes

I'm sat out on the balcony

Too sad to go to the party

It's a crime loving you so, it's a crime letting you go

[Pre-Chorus]

I guess I believe

I believe in old-fashioned things

Imagining us

But the longer I stay, I can see you

What's happening? What's happening?

[Chorus]

Welcome to my Melrose meltdown

Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down

We really fucked it up in diamonds and drugstores

That's what we came for

And when you get it, you got what you need

[Bridge]

Got what you need

When you hang up and say, "I'll see you later"

Got what you need

Write it down, California paper

Got what you need

Forevermore, my anti-hero

For loving and letting me go down, down

[Chorus]

Welcome to my Melrose meltdown

Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down

We really fucked it up in diamonds and drugstores

That's what we came for

And when you get it, you got what you need

[Outro]

Welcome to my Melrose meltdown

We just break down

(And when you get it, you got what you need)
