wish someone would tell you/how to take the pain away
wish someone would tell you/how to look over your shoulder
and never look up a name/that you had on your mind
and that hearts will heal/only one at a time

wish someone would tell you/that quiet nights/only cost so much/as the louder ones
and your mind won't stay empty/if you keep thinking about it
and that you should most definitely not/think about it

sometimes you dont get what you want/but you still want it
that the heart will break/and your wounds will flaunt it
cos even if you didnt think it would hurt/well it will
you body doesnt ask what you want/and your heart never will

sometimes your friends wont call back/cos they've taken a side
and silence will be your enemy/and your best friend in a fight
you wish a lot of things/then some will come true
oh but/here's to the most of them/that will never do

so its best that you dont look it up/or find a definition
cos when your heart breaks/and it screams/dissonance in your cognition
you get what you ask for/and what you don't with no permission
and you break but you fall again/like you're in remission

no i dont wanna talk to you/what is there left to say
i dont wanna dwell on this/when/you wouldn't stay
here's the part/where/we choose to restart or just part
the ball's in your court/but i've got a broken heart
