Well I can't regret,
(can't you just forget it?)
I started something I couldn't finish
(And if we go down, we go down together)
best friends means,
(well best friends means)
And I've got a twenty-dollar bill
that says you're up late night starting
(fist fights versus fences in your backyard)
Wearing your black eye like a badge of honor
(Soaking in sympathy)
from friends who never loved you
(nearly half as much as me)

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
("it's just what anyone would do")
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
("it's something unforgivable")

Well I can't regret,
(can't you just forget it?)
I started something I couldn't finish
If we go down, we go down together
(best friends means)
(well best friends means)
And you never knew
(well I never told you)
Everything I know about breaking hearts
(I learnt from you, it's true)
I've never done it with the style and grace you have
But I've made lots of plans
(based on these mistakes)

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
("it's just what anyone would do")
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
("it's something unforgivable")

Is this what you call tact?
I swear you're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
so let's end this call,
and end this conversation
there's nothing worse...
(that's right he said,)
[Have another drink and drive yourself home.]
I swear, you have no idea
(That's right he said it)
[I hope there's ice on all the roads.]
The jealousy that became me thinking
(That's right he said)
[And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,]
that you always had it way too easy
[And again when your head goes through the windshield.]

Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
[x5]
Best friend thinks I pulled the trigger
Best friend thinks you get what you deserve
