Not Like This

You told me everything I wanted to hear
Folded your clothes, text me laughing in tears
Kissed me at midnight every new year
Now I'm up all night on my own

You got me hooked on all the words that you said
Perched on a carousel round in my head
Until you got her, I couldn't care less
But now I wish she was dead

It doesn't seem quite fair to me
Is it too much to ask for you to be sad without me?
Every day, every night
That I'm not by your side
It's just a bad dream

I know I said that I wanted you to be happy
But damn, I didn't think that you'd find it so easy
I want us to be, you minus me
But not like this, not like this
It's you and her, and I'm in between, and it kills me
Oh, why the hell does it only work in the movies
I want us to be, you minus me
But not like this not like this

Does she know you really like it when girls order a beer?
Know that dying young is one of your fears
Does she know you like it when it gets weird
Does she know I wish she would just disappear

It doesn't seem quite fair to me
Is it too much to ask for you to be sad without me?
Every day, every night
That I'm not by your side
It's just a bad dream

I know I said that I wanted you to be happy
But damn, I didn't think that you'd find it so easy
I want us to be, you minus me
But not like this not like this
It's you and her, and I'm in between, and it kills me
Oh, why the hell does it only work in the movies
I want us to be, you minus me
But not like this, not like this

All this jealousy, jealousy
Haunting me, haunting me
I'd rather you, rather be by yourself
I want us to wanna be
Only you minus me
Not like this, not like this

I know I wanted you to be happy
But damn, you found it so easy
I want us to be, you minus me
But not like this

All this jealousy, jealousy
Haunting me, haunting me
I'd rather you rather be by yourself
I want us to wanna be
Only you minus me
Not like this, not like this
