[Verse 1]

Well, I felt so bad when I heard that song

You know it's been such a long, long time

It's a little offbeat and it ain't in tune

You know, it's just like this heart of mine


[Pre-Chorus]

And it hurt

You went away

And all I wanted you to do was stay


[Verse 2]

Going steady, yeah, we had big plans

But your friends said it wouldn't last

Was up to you to prove them wrong

But, girl, you couldn't even do that


[Pre-Chorus]

And if it hurt when you left

Well girl, you know you're only hurtin' yourself


[Chorus]

You know the first night you left me babe, it was so hard

And it didn't hurt, you told all my friends I'm a retard


[Verse 3]

And you say you know what's best for me

Well if you got your way, I'd have a lobotomy

I got new girls and I'm runnin' around

The house doesn't look the same

I hung new posters on my wall

And the dog don't remember your name


[Pre-Chorus]

And if it hurt, when you left

Well girl, you know you're only hurtin' yourself


[Bridge]

You can try to change your heart, that's true

But you never ever, ever do

Oh, baby, no you never ever, ever do

I'll tell you something, no, you never ever, ever do


[Outro]

Sleeping aides

And razor blades

Tear-stained pictures of younger days

Broken mirrors and a bloody nose
