[Verse 1]
Baby moved to my town just to watch me let him go
I'd rather I didn't know
Turned up to my work to tell me "what a small world
I'm just around the corner or so"
Sucking on a cigarette like he think I want to smoke it
Must be joking
Tugging at my sleeve like his heart is hardly coping
I get roped in
[Chorus]
No I can't, no I cannot live it over again
Pull my hair out, I'm so tied up in the shit we pretend
I'll put my face on, you'll be the wasteman that I know I'll defend
And you know I cannot believe you but I think i need you
Wish I could be the end
[Verse 2]
You're so sentimental, trying to keep it so real
You don't know how I really feel
Telling me I'm mental like it's not a big deal
But I'm the one who gave you the wheel
Flicking through my memories in case I might be wasting
I go crazy
I don't recognize me, I look jaded
My identity is hazy
[Chorus]
No I can't, no I cannot live it over again
Pull my hair out, I'm so tied up in the shit we pretend
I'll put my face on, you'll be the wasteman that I know I'll defend
And you know I cannot believe you but I think i need you
Wish I could be the end
[Verse 3]
Look at the people we played, it's all make believe
I wish the best for you but not better than me
Look at the damage we did but you won't go down
You put the bullet in my pocket and walked yourself out
[Chorus]
No I can't, no I cannot live it over again
Pull my hair out, I'm so tied up in the shit we pretend
No I can't, no I cannot live it over again
Pull my hair out, I'm so tied up in the shit we pretend
I'll put my face on, you'll be the wasteman that I know I'll defend
And you know I cannot believe you but I think i need you
Wish I could be the end
