I'm sorry, you were dead to me the second you lied to me and thrust that blade in my back.
My blinds are drawn and my lights are off, I'll see you fucks in about 3 months.
A month for every year I wasted with you here.
This season is just hell for me, it's flat with grey and apathy.
In this bed we shared I'm leaving room. God I hate that I got so used to you, and I'm through.
and I'm out. I'm out. I'm getting out.
I'm sorry, you're boring me with all of your stories. Why waste your time with the facts?
But I can wear a permasmile, and I can live live in denial.
Spinning out but holding in, outrunning debts and all my sins.
(Chorus)
"Smile. Why don't you smile?"
"Smile. Don't you smile?"
I'm sorry you're bored of me and all my worries.
Why waste my time with the past?
All my will is leaving me and it's shaking hands with enemies.
All my dread is banging down my door, and all the years are seeping through my floors.
I can wear a permasmile, clenching my jaw all the while I keep living in denial, all my fears are running wild
