Lyrics

It’s a grey Morning, I go to work, we haven’t said anything for three days
We used to talk, I want to talk, but you roll over and pretend your sleepin’
A whiskey bottle, under the sink, and those pills, she got from a friend
They make her calm, they keep her sane, make her feel like, she’s not at the end

CHORUS
Hey ya, it’s not like that, not like that, I didn’t mean it
I wasn’t thinking, you weren’t thinkin, I didn’t mean it, I know you’re not like that

Simple wit, and some simple words, a simple lie is, no better than that
And I say, hey it’s okay, if that’s what you want, you’re gonna have it anyway
So I go out, out drinkin’, try to forget, where you are and who you’re with
I’d like to think, it’ll be alright, so I hold it in, no I won’t be laughin’ tonight

CHORUS

She says hey you know, I never messed around, but she knows, that I know better than that
But I believe, just for a while, then I wake up and I know that I don’t know her
And she says there has to be something more, and I know, that somethin’ it just ain’t you
She packs her things, in the dark, drives away, while I pretend I’m sleepin’

CHORUS

This whiskey, it’s sure contagious, I pour a drink, and I wait for the ambulance to come

CHORUS 2
Hey ya, it’s not like that, not like that, I didn’t mean it
You werent’t thinking, I wasn’t thinkin, I guess you meant it cause I know you’re just like that
