Watching her as she goes
With the rest of her clothes
It's a terrible thing to lose
She must choose which one
And I wasn't picked
I feel stupid and kicked
Like she kicked me right in the chest
I tried my best to win her
I want to summon my pride
And look her straight in the eye
Say, "there's something strong down inside:
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing wrong, wrong with me"
Watching her over time
Assessing every line
Telling myself it wouldn't have worked out
I'm better of without her
She's all balled up with despair
But she has such beautiful hair
She likes to drink, she likes to go away
It hurts too much to stay
She didn't last too long
So much unsaid, and now she's gone
But down inside there's something strong
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing wrong wrong with her
