“…And She Said it With a Straight Face”

You know I know you don’t do well with change
So I’ll try to make this easy
I need you not to fall apart
This is the crucial part
Otherwise, I’ll never make it out alive
Or clear-eyed through the door
I don’t know how to say this to you
I hope you know it hurts me too
It’s not like I stopped loving you

How’d I know you wouldn’t let me go?

One two three four
Come on get up off the floor
You make me worried when you look so pale
Just try to take another breath
You’re gonna drink yourself to death
It’s not like I found another
I never meant things to be like this
And hurting you just makes me sick
I hate to see you when you’re down
You’re not so pretty when you frown, boy

How’d I know you wouldn’t let me go?

I know you know I don’t like to explain
You could make this so easy
Please try not to fall apart
You know it breaks my heart
If it’s not too much to expect
I’d like to leave without regrets
So try to keep the screaming down
I’ve got no time for questions now
Why do you feel the need to pry
It’s not like I found some other guy
You want the honest reason why?
Your touch just makes me wanna die, boy

How’d I know you wouldn’t let me go?
