What we had was special
That's what you always said
On our second day you looked at me and smiled
This is it
What was broken was no burden
Bigger messes have been made
And bigger messes have been fixed
In only one day
But here we are
Three AM on the phone
Saying that I'm a mess
And you should have been alone
If you've gotta lie to yourself
About what we had
And take a new man
I understand
I'm not imagining this
You have two mouths and three fists
We argued twice last month
I can't just go around climbing Everest
What was broken was no burden
Bigger messes have been made
And bigger messes have been fixed
In only one day
But here we are
Three AM on the phone
Saying that I'm a mess
And you should have been alone
If you've gotta lie to yourself
About what we had
And take a new man
I understand
But I look forward to the day
That you've got the same goddamn complaints about him
The cycle never really ends
Should have seen the patterns
Should have seen the signs
When you talked about the others
I should have read between the lines
If you've gotta lie to yourself
About what we had
And take a new man
I understand
But I look forward to the day
That you've got the same goddamn complaints about him
The cycle never really ends
