Broken By Break-Up

Ring. Ring.
Reality check.
that's right. she doesn't care.
don't cry now.
I've been telling you all along.
same old song. same old song.
Laugh. Laugh.
Sanity check.
that's right. I always knew.
don't ask how.
Oh, it's not that important.
irrelevant. irrelevant.
Deny. Deny.
Memory check.
that's right. it's now over.
don't have a lover.
But it was all a bunch of lies.
open your eyes. open your eyes.
Plea. Plea.
Apathy check.
that's right. won't have you back.
don't beg now.
She doesn't care how you feel.
gotta deal. gotta deal.
Smash. Smash.
Intoxication check.
that's right. song's almost done.
don't hang on. (hangover)
Broken bottles can be replaced.
have another taste. have another taste.
Bleed. Bleed.
Possibility check.
that's right. you were just a tool.
don't be a fool.
Youthful wrists shouldn't be slit.
get over it. get over it.
