The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My ear can't hold a pencil
And my mind can't keep a thought
And my arms aren't nearly strong enough
To hold the shit I've got
But stop feeling sorry for me
That's great, you've got your sanity
But apologies are not
What I need
I'm going out
I'm going out
To get my mind off you
I'll have a drink or two
I know this might be rough on you
Don't worry - I've been in your shoes
We've only got a plan to lose
This sucks and you know it too
The thrill of the chase caught up with me
They paid me back comically
Though I can't say I'm mad, they don't want me
What do you think it means?
I'm going out
I'm going out
To get my mind off you
I'll have a drink or two
Cross my heart, cross my eyes
Cross my fingers, hope to die
Bury me with the friends I've lost
They say that pain is the cost of love, of love
I knew it had to happen soon
It just sucks it had to be with you
All the songs I once sang for you
I'll still thing them, though the meaning's you
Roles reversed and then press play
Can't think of anything to say
But how many times
Can one heart break?
I'm going out
I'm going out
To get my mind off you
I'll have a drink or two
I'm going out
I'm going out
I'm going out
I'm going out
