Tell me a story, will we all change
And we'd live our lives together, another strange
I didn't lose my mind, it was mine to give away
Couldn't stay to watch me cry, you didn't have the time
So I softly slip away

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt
Sing me a love song (sing me a love song)
Drop me a line (drop me a line)
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine

I know from the outside (when they all stared)
We looked good for each other (so people said)
Felt things were going wrong
When you didn't like me mother (it was all in your head)
I don't want to hate but that's all you've left me with
A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy of how we all could live

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt (we've been told you stay up
late)
I know they're still talking (you're far too short to carry
weight)
The demons in your head (return the videos, they're late)
If I could just stop hating you (goodbye)
I feel sorry for us instead

Remember the photographs, insane
The one where we all laughed so lame
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you, it was a real blast

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt (we've been told you stay up
late)
Write me a love song (you're far too short to carry weight)
Drop me a line (return the videos, they're late)
Suppose it's just a point of view (goodbye)
But they tell me I'm doing fine

Everything I wanted to be, every time I walked away
Every time you told me to leave I just wanted to stay
Every time you looked at me and every time you smiled
I felt so vacant when you treat me like a child
I love the way we used to laugh, I love the way we used to
smile
Often I sit down and think of you for a while
And then it passes me by and I think of someone else
instead
I guess the love we once had is officially
Dead
