Oh, he sat down to dinner with an empty chair
Said "Every day's filled with despair
'Cept those that do not end in y,
Oh, why did she leave me so permanently high and dry
I've been barely gettin' by
I drink alone in crowded bars
And don't know why."
I regret everything I've ever done before
Even though they weren't mistakes
Just plot twists meant to raise the stakes
None of it did a damn thing to prepare me for
The day that she would leave
The last day that I think I even smiled
Well, she drowned all her sorrows in her magazines
Said "Why don't those girls look like me
Oh, I can't eat and now I smoke myself to sleep
Well, my heart had been broke, but now its on the mend;
I think I'm giving up on men,
But when I think of him,
I stop and think again."
I regret everything I've ever done before
Even though they weren't mistakes
Just plot twists meant to raise the stakes
None of it did a damn thing to prepare me for
The day that she would leave
The last day that I think I even smiled
