I don't have to stay till the end of the show
I already know how this story will go
It ends up when the guy starts to grovel
I think I read this novel before
No use trying, no woman, no crying
I don't have any time that I'm willing to waste
It's something that I'm not prepared to replace
So I'm gonna skip introductions
Slip the repercussions to come
No use trying, no woman, no crying
Almost caught me staring as I was preparing to go
Couldn't be certain of the view-perhaps just a glint
The tiniest hint of steel showing through
Wouldn't think that I would need to be reminded again
Beauty often hides a sting - I wasn't alert
Didn't think I could be hurt; I lost everything
No use trying, no woman, no crying
She said that she was sad that I'm always alone
But that's the only safe space that I've ever known
I feel like I have to defend it, pretending that these walls aren't thin
Cause it could fall apart If I let her try to make it better again
I'm gonna fall apart if I let her try to make it better again
