Drinking to the things I can't take back Thinking of the friends and faith I lack And no one broke my heart quite like that man It's better if you don't care but if you do I won't follow you again TV's on but facing at the wall Can they tell I don't like me at all? I'm never as alone as I am back home Pulling every thread seemed like a thing to do Now I can't give it back, my favourite kind of blue It's better if I don't dwell but if I do I won't call on you again Tinseltown was always in the rain I've been gone and notice every change And some of them are not our friends, and some of them are still our friends but dead It's better if I don't think too much of you I've been on my own so I should see it through I mumble when I speak but I mean it when I do I carry what I keep, I don't miss a lot of you I drink and I think too much, I should quit one of the two But I won't wish for luck and I won't bother you It's better if you don't care but if you do I won't follow you again
