Year of the Ex

(The year of the ex

The year of the ex)

It's been a long 365 days

And I'm back where I started

And I know it's true what my friends say

But it's part of my process

Oh because it goes like that, a relapse

To take me back and fill the cracks my heart has

So when I need a pick-me-up

I know it's one of them I'll be callin'

It was the year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause I'm scared to commit

I feel safe in the wreck of the bits

The year of the ex

The year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause a brief dose of them is the best medicine I can get

The year of the ex

I get a rush so sweet

When I see my phone and it's your name

Familiarity means he knows how to do it all my way

Oh baby, goes like that, a relapse

I'm calling back, he's in my cab to my flat

Two minutes and it's like we're in a time warp

Before all of the heartbreak

It was the year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause I'm scared to commit

I feel safe in the wreck of the bits

The year of the ex

The year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause a brief dose of them is the best medicine I can get

The year of the ex

(The year of the ex)

There's a method to my madness

I've had a lot of practice, hmm

There's a method to my madness

It's almost like I've planned it

It was the year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause I'm scared to commit

I feel safe in the wreck of the bits

The year of the ex

The year of the ex

Doing it over and over again

Which one of you's next?

'Cause déjà vu feelin' like a friend

'Cause a brief dose of them is the best medicine I can get

The year of the ex
