Lyrics

[Verse 1] So there you are And here I stand As far as I remember You weren't half bad Your bedroom behavior was never more than checkmarks on bedposts The more I remember we never had [Pre-Chorus] Get me out of the rain You get me out of my clothes Hope I don't make a sound You hope that nobody knows Get me out of the rain Get me out of my clothes Hope I don't make a sound You hope that no one [Chorus] So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths [Verse 2] So don't explain 'Cause I know exactly what you're going to say Big words, recycled phrases And the bittersweet taste of other boys on your lips So now just sit here and talk about how you wanted it all Now just sit here and talk about how you wanted it all You wanted it all [Pre-Chorus] Get me out of the rain You get me out of my clothes Hope I don't make a sound You hope that nobody knows [Chorus] So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths [Bridge] Do you miss looking up from the floor at my face on a stage in a crowded room? Well, it's not the same I bet you're still a sucker for those famous faces Downtown, looking down, down Looking over the crowd I hope you're out there, look at me now Well, it's not the same Just look at how we've changed [Chorus] So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths So suck your so-called pity down It's not so bad, is it So take your cold, cold heart and drown And don't forget to take deep breaths
