You Were Perfect & I'm Sorry

And I met her downtown in the slums of Austin

Once we were sober, she said

"I'm from Boston"

I told her, "I couldn't give Massa-two-shits"

Luckily, she likes guys that treat her like

Help me, everyone calls me Mickey

Just wanna be your darling

'Cause fame is fuckin' empty

You warned me

So, listen, I know you're probably with him

And maybe for good reason

But, you don't fuckin' need him

I warned you

I tried my best to hide it

But now I'm done denying

You were perfect and I'm so sorry

I'm such a dick

But you still love me

I still regret letting you leave me

Don't you forget you used to need me

Should probably take my own advice now

And move on with my life now

And stop singing about how you left me

Maybe stop getting your advice from the guy you get your high from

If you want my advice

(Run) real quickly

How can I love someone that can't stand

The thought of loving me back?

Why do I think I need that?

I know you, pick me

But one day, babe, you'll thank me

For teaching you how to leave

A piece of shit just like me

I warned you

I tried my best to hide it

But now I'm done denying

You were perfect and I'm so sorry

I'm such a dick

But you still love me

I still regret letting you leave me

Don't you forget you used to need me

(You used to need me)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

(You used to need me)

Yeah, I remember when you said how you wish that I was dead

So, I tried to kill myself

Swallowed way too many pills

And god the tummy-ache was shit

But not enough to kill the kid

Sometimes I wish I didn't live

But I'm so fucking glad I did

I remember what you said

You were wishing I was dead

Now, you're wishing me the best

'Cause my song's stuck in your head

I can't believe the things I did

For some narcissistic bitch

I'm so glad I still exist

Just so I can rub it in

You were perfect and I'm so sorry

I'm such a dick

But you still love me

I still regret letting you leave me

Don't you forget you used to need me

You, you used to need me
