Like I wasn’t her only boy
I tossed those words in the fire
Watched them burn learning chords
Turned the ache into rhymes
Until I didn’t hurt, no not today
Or something like that anyway
Verse Two
She left a note in the morning rain
Eight words in her Tuesday script
You’re too much babe
Gotta run anywhere but you
I tossed those words into the howling wind
Sat with Georgia til morning
Plucked her strings with bleeding fingers
She’s gone and I’m better off
Poured another drink, cause nothing lingers
Or something like that anyway
Chorus
Or something like that anyway
That’s what we say when it hurts too much
Hide behind our pretty masks
So no one sees the demons
I’ve been leaving before I’m left
Since I learned that’s how it goes
Convinced I’ll die alone
Or something like that anyway
Bridge
You told me something real
Like you already knew my song
Then took it back
