Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can barely look at you
Don't tell me who you lost it to
Didn't we say we had a deal
Didn't I say how bad I feel
Everyone needs a helping hand
Who said I would not understand
Someone up the social scale
For when you're going off the rails have
[Verse 2]
Post break up sex that helps you forget your ex
What did you expect from post break up sex
Leave it till the guilt consumes
Fucking in the nearest room
All our friends were unaware
Most had just passed out downstairs
To think I'd hoped you'd be okay
Now I can't think of what to say
Maybe I misunderstood
But I can't believe you're feeling good
[Verse 3]
From post break up sex
That helps you forget your ex
What did you expect from post break up sex
Post break up sex that helps you forget your ex
What did you expect from post break up sex
Oh when you love somebody
But you find someone
[Verse 4]
Uh huh huh
And it all unravels and becomes undone
Uh huh huh
Uh huh huh
Uh huh huh
[Verse 5]
Post break up sex that helps you forget your ex
What did you expect from post break up sex
Post break up sex that helps you forget your ex
What did you expect from post break up sex
