Lyrics
Well you see this smile
This ain't no smile
This is just a little facial tick
And it' don't mean anything
And this here laugh
This little ha ha ha
Well it ain't real and it don't mean squat
I was just pretending
Cause nothings gonna come nothings gonna come
Between me and my misery
Cause you see these tears sliding down my cheeks
Well there my favorite accessories
I wear them with everything
And this hurt look
So sad and blue
It goes with everything
But since I met you
It don't look so good on me
And nothings gonna come, nothings gonna come
Between me and my misery
Cause me and misery we go way back
And it's hard to let go of a friend like that
When you've been hurt once and you've been hurt twice
Well I've been burned so many times
I can't let you get to me
And nothings gonna come nothings gonna come
Between me and my misery
And you hear this heart inside my chest
It beats a little faster so I guess
It aint learned anything
And this here brain
Yeah my big old brain
She talkes to my heart she tries to explain
But my heart's not listening
And nothings gonna come nothings gonna come
Between me and my misery
It's just me and my misery
(It would be easy to do the "me and misery we go way back" part again and make it more of a chorus type thingy.)
