The song grapples with the thought that, despite rejecting her, the protagonist still feels some sorrow deep down at the idea that she’s unhappy.

Perpetual Sorrow Lyrics

When I heard you were gone
And tried to fake a yawn
Inside my head my thoughts ran red
But it didn’t last too long (I'm feeling wrong now)
Well I heard that you don't care
I hear it everywhere (no, no no, no)
Your life is new and happy too
At least that’s what I hear

Hey, back in the day
I rejected you but still
Ooooh
Been through with you
But pride is such a bitter pill

Well I heard you got around
When I was out downtown
You’re damaged goods for good for now
You never were much good no-how
Well I heard you met your end
I heard it from a friend (no, no no, no)
It made me sad to feel so glad
I guess my heart now too is dead

Hey, back in the day
I rejected you but still
Ooooh
Been through with you
But pride is such a bitter pill

Where does it all begin
Where there's no start, well there's no end
Like a comet in the sky
This tale is long, but has no eyes

Oooh, ooh
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
Perpetual sorrow, perpetual sorrow
I didn’t want you when you were around
I hate to hear you’re safe and sound
I don’t want you back, girl
I just want you down
