I knew before it started, this August would be a hard one Late summer love sprung up between us Didn't last through the seasons I'm brokenhearted, I'm disappointed It was still beautiful Took myself out to dinner and cried about you on the way home Used to wear my sadness like a choker, yeah It had me by the throat Tonight, I feel I'm draped in it like a loose garment I just let it flow (Ah) (Ah) (Ah, ah) ♪ I could come up with reasons I didn't love you well enough Shooting the second arrow into the hole where the first was We've paid in pain now, we'll keep the change The blame is for the birds (blame is for the birds) I'll break it up in pieces and feed it to them by the river Used to wear my sadness like a choker, yeah It had me by the throat (had me by the throat) Tonight, I feel I'm draped in it like a loose garment I just let it flow (Ah) (Ah) (Ah, ah)
