SONG LYRICS: “Heartbreak in Reverse”
I’ve tried drinking too much I’ve tried getting stoned I’ve tried girls who look like you And i've tried girls who don’t
Sobriety, therapy/celibacy, meditation too I swear I’ve damn near tried, Everything I’m supposed to do Tell me why am I still hurting Thought it get better but it got worse Space only brought more lonelyWish I could put this heartbreak in reverse
I met a handsome boy, ‘n stayed the night at his place But it made me miss our old apartment and your stupid face I went and met a girl, who couldn't be more sweet, But it just made me miss how dark and twisted you could be
Tell me why am I still hurting Thought it get better but it got worse Space only brought more lonely Wish I could put this heartbreak in reverse
I was supposed to want you less Honey, But I just want you more I’d take it all back if I could Wish I could put this heartbreak in reverse
There’s only one thing left to do The one thing that we ain’t tried yet, So let’s get back together, and I betchu baby that’s when
Finally Both of us stop hurting It’ll get better it won’t get worse mmm No more space to make us lonely Once we put this heartbreak in reverse
I don’t want you any less Baby I just want you more Whaddya say we take it on back And put this heartbreak in reverse less
