Sleeping Aides And Razorblades Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I felt so bad when I heard that song
You know it's been such a long, long time
It's a little offbeat and it ain't in tune
You know, it's just like this heart of mine

[Pre-Chorus]
And it hurt
You went away
And all I wanted you to do was stay

[Verse 2]
Going steady, yeah, we had big plans
But your friends said it wouldn't last
Was up to you to prove them wrong
But, girl, you couldn't even do that

[Pre-Chorus]
And if it hurt when you left
Well girl, you know you're only hurtin' yourself

[Chorus]
You know the first night you left me babe, it was so hard
And it didn't hurt, you told all my friends I'm a retard

[Verse 3]
And you say you know what's best for me
Well if you got your way, I'd have a lobotomy
I got new girls and I'm runnin' around
The house doesn't look the same
I hung new posters on my wall
And the dog don't remember your name

[Pre-Chorus]
And if it hurt, when you left
Well girl, you know you're only hurtin' yourself

[Bridge]
You can try to change your heart, that's true
But you never ever, ever do
Oh, baby, no you never ever, ever do
I'll tell you something, no, you never ever, ever do

[Outro]
Sleeping aides
And razor blades
Tear-stained pictures of younger days
Broken mirrors and a bloody nose
Late night TV rerun episodes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
