lyrics

The only bands I listen to now are the ones you never liked
The only time I play songs about you is when I need something to rewrite
The only thing that kept me from tossing the box out was pure laziness
And the only reason I hope you're okay is 'cause I don't want you to be pissed

'Cause you know if I didn't cut you off
You know you never would have thought to
I know my reasons seemed kind of vague
But I know it didn't matter what I would say to you

The only reason I look at you in the halls is 'cause I accidentally raise my head
The only mantra I have left from you is scribbled in Sharpie on my bed
The only time I know when to shave now is when November is through
And the only taste that's left in my mouth is a girl that I tried after you

But you know if I didn't cut you off
You know you never would have thought to
I know my reasons seemed kind of vague
But I know it didn't matter what I would say to you

I had only one method of recovery
Not a new one, but one familiar to me
I'd only listen to the first three Barenaked Ladies albums on repeat
You never knew a goddamn thing 'cause the only song that you knew was 'One Week'
And I always have and I always will
Fucking hate Tonic, Riddick Chronicles,
And mothers undeserving to raise a child

The only people I write about now are you and potential replacements
And when I'm not doing that, the only thing that I do is jerk off in the basement
The only thing that reminds me I made the right choice is the smile on your face
When you run to his arms and he picks you up and puts you in a much better place

Now you know if I didn't cut you off
You know you never would have thought to
I know my reasons seemed kind of vague
But I know it didn't matter what I would say to you
