Your ex-girlfriend told me you were having a bad time 
Day-to-day life shouldn't be what it's all about 
Day-to-day life is something we all know too much about 
I guess you got no one to take care of you 

Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying 
Hey I didn't know things were going so bad for you 
Maybe you're just trying to get her to come back to you 
Or work your way out of the cynical attitudes  
that protect you 
Bad habits make our decisions for us 
You should try remember  
all you're holding Is a handful of dust 

It's not even closing time 
And already stars are falling out of the sky 
You're all lit up, you gotta do something 
I'll help you try 

Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying 
Now do you believe the stories  
when you're life's not buying 
I guess you got no one to take care of you
