as fireworks exploded over your house it was 3am
|
I noticed, you¡¯re not home
|
and the silhouettes in windows at your old boyfriend¡¯s house
|
are smoke-and-mirror signals that
|
you¡¯re around
|
|
better luck next time kid,
|
now you¡¯ve loved and lost we¡¯ll call it quits
|
and best of luck,
|
getting over it.
|
I¡¯ve taken the biggest hit,
|
and all that you could think to say was this
|
I¡¯ll collect my things
|
when it¡¯s convenient
|
|
don¡¯t write
|
don¡¯t call
|
i won¡¯t miss you at all
|
|
late nights are kicking in,
|
the caffeine and these love songs aren¡¯t working,
|
just hit repeat and sing along again
|
I can¡¯t believe it came to this
|
the sound of breaking glass and mix-tape hits
|
drown out the words
|
as I sing
|
|
and I know this will fade over time
|
but tonight it¡¯s just heartbeats and lines
|
from our song and the thousands of lies
|
that you told
|
|
don¡¯t write
|
don¡¯t call
|
i won¡¯t miss you at all
|
