Perfect Crime

I've wore this ring for a long time It ain't ever got me down I've wore this ring for a long time But I've still somehow managed to get around Sometimes I wake up late at night and I regret my decision Cuz the girl laying next to me in this bed ain't the one that I've been missing Met the first at 14 back when we were kids that didn't understand Met the other in the middle of my wild phase, at the time she was a friend of a friend Now it seems I know her as good, if not better, than I do the first And I just can't bring myself to decide which one I want the worst It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up another fifth It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime There's days I wake up and kick myself for wondering where you are People always told me that heartbreak's never easy, but goddamn they never said it'd be this hard And I'm starting to doubt I'll be able to make it through If I have to go through this story book fairytale they call life without you It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up another fifth It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime Now there's wedding bells ringing in the summer time And I just can't get her off my mind And there's no one around to help me escape this time It's like choosing the rope to have your own noose tied up with It's like being sober for years then all the sudden picking up one more fifth It's like choosing the very bullet that you know is gonna end your life But really all that's a whole lot easier than trying to commit the perfect crime
