lyrics

Amy's cool yeah. She's way cooler than me. We started hanging out back in 2008. When times were fun and life was really great but, now she's saying please get me the hell out of this place. She said she's leaving and I'm still dreaming of the day when we move out to California.

Now she's hopping on the train. I'm standing in the pouring rain. I started running. I had it coming.

I tripped and fell and then I broke my teeth. My tongue was bleeding and I could barely speak. I tried my best to get back on my feet. I came to tell you I love you and I don't want you to go. Amy told me that I'm better off on my own.

Now she's leaving and I'm pretending that I can't feel the pain. I know we'll never be the same. Yeah I'm the one to blame.

I tripped and fell and then I broke my teeth. My tongue was bleeding and I could barely speak. I tried my best to get back on my feet. I came to tell you I love you and I don't want you to go.I only ever get your stupid busy tone. She never answers her goddamn telephone.
