Breakup

I got in a car crash
I was grateful to be distracted
For just a moment
Something else felt more important

There's a hole in my chest
And it's shaped just like you
I'll have to fill it with someone else
'Cause there's not enough of me to go around

You keep calling it a breakup
But I've been having a breakdown
Seems like the only thing that's been broken is me

I wish I could take a break
From visualizing your face
Every time I try to fall asleep

And I used to be Pinkerton
But this time I'm playing Butterfly
Left to pick up the pieces
When you sailed across the sea

Think I'll have to move time zones
Too many memories of you on this coast
New England is ruined for me

You keep calling it a breakup
But I've been having a breakdown
Seems like the only thing that's been broken is me

Try to think of the bad stuff
You never made me feel like I was enough
Forgot all about me on your boys retreat

Now I know if you wanted to you would have
I bent over backwards doing things that you could have
That's how I convinced myself I was needy

Used to sing Sea of Love in your dorm bed
We came home late and I held back your head
Ever since then I've been waiting for you to need me

But I didn't know
What desperation was
Until I loved someone
Who didn't want me to talk to him

You keep calling it a breakup
But I've been having a breakdown
Seems like the only thing that's been broken is me
