[Verse 1]
Distraction will be the death of me, oh
Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups
And I've been assuming that things are all working out
But this won't be the first time that I've been wrong about you
[Verse 2]
You're so smart
But my love just ain't enough
Baby, that's okay
I was thinking about fucking myself anyway
[Chorus]
It's not like me to be so weak
You got me good, you cut me deep
It's honestly, probably

Depression is the devil on my shoulder that I can't suppress
And I feel the desperation
No longer recognise the face that's staring back at me

Every signal you sent went over my head and missed the whole point again
[Chorus]
It's not like me to be so weak
You got me good, you cut me deep
It's honestly, probably
The heartbreak of the century
Apologies, apologies
They just don't work
She walks away
It's honestly, probably

You got me, you got me good
And you cut me, you cut me deep
(Honestly) It's honestly (Probably), probably
(The heartbreak of) The heartbreak of (The century) the century
[Chorus]
It's not like me to be so weak
You got me good
You cut me deep (Deep)
It's honestly, probably
The heartbreak of the century
Apologies, apologies
They just don't work
She walks away
It's honestly, probably
The heartbreak of the century
