All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone, baby it's all wrong
Where are the plans we made for two?

The people we used to be...
It's even harder to picture,
That you're not here next to me.

You say it's too late to make it,
But is it too late to try?
And in our time that you wasted
All of our bridges burned down.

If "Happy Ever After" did exist,
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairy tales are full of shit
One more fucking love song, I'll be sick.

'Cause you forgot yesterday.
