I was waiting
Opening all my closed doors
Anticipating, like a fool, didn't see it coming
Suffocating, couldn't be more than you were
So overrated
Overrated
I know that you never asked for this
Smoking a cigarette
Telling me your favorite band was The Cure, but what good would it do to us
If I let it be known that it was Huey Lewis
And the news that I got told me all that I'm not built to know
So now I'm basking in the realness of something pretended
Looking at envelopes, to the letters, and nowhere to send, 'cause it's true
The last that I got was from you today
So why'd you walk out if you still got something to say?
Confessing the things that I thought made you strong
Just kept you guessing
Kept you guessing
Overwhelming, bearing the weight of the world
Never caring, never caring
I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you from this
Smoking a cigarette
Telling me your favorite band was The Cure, but what good would it do to us
If I let it be known that it was Huey Lewis
And the news that I got told me all that I'm not built to know
So now I'm basking in the realness of something pretended
Looking at envelopes, to the letters, and nowhere to send, but it's true
The last that I got was from you today
So why'd you walk out if you still got something to say, hey, hey, hey, hey
So why'd you walk out if you still got something to say?
It was only seconds
But it seemed like a lifetime ago
Who would have thought they'd be records?
We're still such a long way to go
And when I'm out of apologies
Won't you put me out of your misery?
Can't believe that I bought it
When you tell me it's okay
Why should I even try it?
There's nothing I can do or say
And when I'm out of apologies
Won't you put me out of your misery?
'Cause you were just as blind as me
And when I'm out of apologies
Won't you put me out of your misery?
