They cry 'cause that's what they do

Oh, when somebody's died

It's just the right thing to do

But you stay locked in your room

And the months turn into years

You couldn't list out all my fears

So I slipped into that pretty, black mess

Sold my soul, and yeah, it made less

Than I knew I could get on for it

I was sleeping, I was snoring

La-la, la-la

La-la, la-la

La-la, la-la

La-la, la-la

They cheer 'cause that's what they do

When you're happy for yourself

They'll be so happy with you

Until push comes to shove

And nobody is around

Nobody offers any love

So I slipped into that pretty, black mess

Sold my songs, back then it made sense

But I knew I was so in for it

I was sleeping, I was snoring

You didn't meet me at the bar

(La-la) You didn't meet me in the rain

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the car

(La-la) You only drove me insane

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the park

(La-la) You didn't meet me at her grave

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar

(La-la) You only drove me insane

When I slipped into that pretty, black mess

Sold my soul, and yeah, it made less

Than I knew I could get on for it

I was desperate, I was whoring

When I slipped into that pretty, black mess

Sold my soul, then it made sense

But I knew I was so in for it

I was sleeping, I was snoring

You didn't meet me at the bar

(La-la) You didn't meet me in the rain

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the car

(La-la) You only drove me insane

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the park

(La-la) You didn't meet me at her grave

(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar

(La-la) You only drove me insane

La-la, la-la

La-la
