lyrics

You couldn’t find the right words
When really any words were right
For the gag reel when your life
Flashes before your eyes

What are you doing?
That’s fucking weird, what are you doing?

Can we please talk about the weather?
Or how to link files in Excel?
Anything we won’t remember
‘Cause we remember if you do

I couldn’t find the right words
But I got your message
I just don’t like the subtext
I don’t like what comes next

And you will never be happy again
And you can never be happy again
You can try all that you like
Dark thoughts will keep you up all night
And you will never be happy again

Take it to your grave
I bet you’ll take it to your bed
And every morning when you wake
You’ll be spooning with your regret

Do you remember?
Now’s as good a time as ever
When you couldn’t hold your drink
And you were such a dick?

And you will never be happy again
And you can never be happy again
And every simile for shame
Will crawl like spiders to your brain
And you will never be happy again

And maybe if you’re lucky
Then maybe everybody
Will just think that you’re high
Your memory doesn’t serve
So much as drag you to the curb
For every public disturbance
It’s okay to be nervous
‘Cause you’re only human
Just not to them

And you will never be happy again
And you can never be happy again
You can try all that you like
You’ll miss out and then you’ll die
And you will never be happy again
