Back in school they never taught us
what we needed to know
Like how to deal with despair
or someone breakin your heart
For twelve years I've held it all together
but a night like this is beggin to pull me apart
I played it quiet left you deep in conversation
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen
I remember I kept thinking
that I know you never would
And now I know I want to kill you
like only a best friend could

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to...

As if it happening wasn't enough
I got to go and write a song
just to remind myself how bad it sucked
Ignore the sun, covers over my head
Wrote a message on my pillow that says
"Jesse, stay asleep in bed"
Don't apologize (I hope you choke and die!)
Search your cell for something which to hang yourself
They say you need to pray
if you want to go to heaven
But they don't tell you what to say
when your whole life has gone to Hell!

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to...
(and I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to everything you do
(and I can't let you let me down again)

So is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids
Have another drink and drive yourself home
I hope there's ice on all the roads
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
and again when your head goes through the windshield

Is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
So let's end this call and end this conversation
And is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say "best friends" means friends forever

Is that what you call a getaway?!!
Tell me what you got away with!!
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish!!
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids!!
Have another drink and drive yourself home!!
I hope there's ice on all the roads!!
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
then when your head goes through the windshield!!

whatever poisons in this bottle
will leave me broken, sore and stiff
but it's the genie at the bottom who i'm sucking at,
he owes me one last wish
so here's a present to let you know i still exist
i hope the next boy that you kiss has something terribly contagious on his lips

but i got a plan (i got a plan)
to drink for forty days and forty nights
a sip for every second-hand tick
and every time you fed the line,
“you mean so much to me”
i'm without you

tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say

and even if her plane crashes tonight
she'll find some way to disappoint me,
by not burning in the wreckage,
or drowning at the bottom of the sea
(insert random name), i still taste you, and thus reserve my right to hate you
and all this empty space that you create
does nothing for my flawless sense of style
it's 8:45 (it's 8:45), the weather is getting better by the hour (rains all the time)
i hope it rains there all the time
and if you ever said you miss me then don't say you never lied
i'm without you

tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say,
who would do anything you say

never gonna get it right, you're never gonna get it

okay no more songs about you. after this one i am done.
you're gone.
