Lyrics[]

I take these turns a bit too fast
Trying to leave you in my past
The CD skips our favorite songs
Our greatest hits just don't belong

I really love to hate this
Love hate
Hate love relationships
Are over-rated
Over my dead body
Is how this will end
You said it's over
And I could go for
Another chance to do
This over again

So this is it?
After all we've been through
We called it quits
And I'm about to
I lost my grip
Oh, the little I had left
You said it's over
And I could really go for a cup of coffee
And an overdose

Leave it all behind me
You'll see it when you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close
Cup of coffee and an overdose

I pop these pills like cracker jacks
And the prize with glazed eyes
Is watching you react
When your depressed you sleep too much
I'm not sure if I'm waking up

It's over-rated
Over my dead body
Is how this will end
You said it'd over
And I could go for
Another chance to do
This over again

So this is it?
After all we've been through
We called it quits
And I'm about to
I lost my grip
Oh, the little I had left
You said it's over
And I could really go for a cup of coffee
And an overdose

Leave it all behind me
You'll see it when you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close
Cup of coffee and an overdose

He said it's over
And I could really go
For a cup of coffee and an overdose
Leave it all behind me
You'll see it when you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close

I stood in line without you
I stood in line without you
I stood in line without you
And I don't tell you what it is
I thought about you
Well without you
Is everything I've got
I stood in line without you
I stood in line without you
