Cardiomyopathy

it's so simple I thought, but you complicate everything,
and one more glimpse of being sought, but you complicate everything
so paint your face up something nice, like a work of art
and it was just like a movie's porn, you're a terrible actress
bad costumes to match this, hope you give up soon cause i can't take much more of this

and i tried to fight this infection, i really did, i really did,
took all the right pills and all those injections, i really did, i really did
but you complicated everything, you really did, you really did

lying on a gurney, and lying to the surgeon
"oh, no I don't smoke, oh, no I don't drink.
oh, no I won't ever think of her again."
but she's watching through the glass,
watching heartbeats pass through monitors and vials filled with the past

and i tried to fight this infection, i really did, i really did,
took all the right pills and all those injections, i really did, i really did
but you complicated everything, you really did, you really did
and these pills aren't working like they said did, like they said they did

so paint your face up something nice, like a work of art
pretend you used something other than lies, just this once
and just for tonight I'll cover up this broken heart
and find someone better than (you)
someone more deserving than (you)
find someone who just isn't you, just isn't you
