Drinking to the things I can't take back

Thinking of the friends and faith I lack

And no one broke my heart quite like that man

It's better if you don't care but if you do

I won't follow you again.

Tv's on but facing at the wall

Can they tell I don't like me at all?

I'm never as alone as I am back home

Pulling every thread

Seemed like a thing to do

Now I can't give it back

My favourite kind of blue

It's better if I don't dwell but if I do

I won't call on you again.

Tinseltown was always in the rain

I've been gone and notice every change

And some of them are not our friends

And some of them are still our friends but dead

It's better if I don't think too much of you

I've been on my own

So I should see it through

I mumble when I speak

But I mean it when I do

I carry what I keep

I don't miss a lot of you

I drink and I think too much

I should quit one of the two

But I won't wish for luck

And I won't bother you

It's better if you don't care but if you do

I won't follow you again.
