Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My heart is paralyzed, my head was oversized
I'll take the high road like I should
You said it's meant to be, that it's not you, it's me
You're leavin' now for my own good
[Verse 2]
That's cool but if my friends ask where you are
I'm gonna say
[Verse 3]
She went down in an airplane, fried gettin' suntanned
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She met a shark underwater, fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
[Verse 4]
My pride still feels the sting, you were my everything
Someday I'll find a love like yours (A love like yours)
She'll think I'm Superman, not super minivan
How could you leave on Yom Kippur?
[Verse 5]
That's cool but if my friends ask where you are
I'm gonna say
[Verse 6]
She was caught in a mudslide, eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She dried up in the desert, drowned in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east-side nightclub
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
[Verse 7]
I wanna live a 1000 lives with you
I wanna be the one you're dyin' to
Love, but you don't want to
[Verse 8]
That's cool but if my friends ask where you are
I'm gonna say
That's cool but if my friends ask where you are
I'm gonna say
[Verse 9]
She went down in an airplane, fried gettin' suntanned
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She met a shark underwater, fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
[Verse 10]
She was caught in a mudslide, eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She dried up in the desert, drowned in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east-side nightclub
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
