The Real Message

Please don't give me sympathy
I'm really feeling better
True, my heart was rend in two
Yet still, it doesn't matter

My story's such a common one
You know, it started just for fun

Breaking up is hard to do
Right, that's a song, but still, it's true
Our life together couldn't last
Knowing what was in my past
Every time it ends this way
Never found a guy who'll stay

He really isn't worth the pain
Emerging when I hear his name
And just because he made a promise
Really, none of us are honest
Trusting always ends the same

Please, just leave me here alone
I just don't want to miss the phone
Thinking he might call once more
You know, I need to sweep this floor . . .

Maybe I'll go out tomorrow
Everyone hides some small sorrow
