Yeah!

The happy ending, the bright blue sky
Never happened to you (cross your heart and hope to die)
That dream come true didn't come true too
It didn't work out the way you wanted it to
It didn't work out the way you wanted it to
It didn't work out the way you wanted it, did it?
It didn't work out the way you wanted it to
It didn't work out the way you wanted it, did it?

Hey!
How does it feel?
Yeah! hey!
How does it feel?
Yeah!

The happy endings never happened to you
It didn't work out the way you wanted it to
Jesus christ holy never came through
It didn't work out the way you wanted it, did it?
It didn't work out the way you wanted it to
It didn't work out the way you wanted it, did it?

Oh babe, you are the only thing that's real
Oh, babe, i can't feel, i can' feel
Oh baby, my baby, oh
Oh babe, i am nothing without you
Broken mirror all the glass and all your blood in your eyes
Tears still fall letting out our love, i tried
Oh babe lost my mind
Mama will never ever understand why
Pretending to smile at a memory it's time
But mama don't you cry
Oh babe (cross your heart and hope to die)

In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying
In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying
In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying
In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying
In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying
In my arms you would be lying
Baby you would be lying

Hey!
How does it feel?
Yeah! hey!
How does it feel?
Hey!
