When I'm away from you I'm happier than ever Wish I could explain it better I wish it wasn't true Give me a day or two To think of something clever To write myself a letter To tell me what to do, mm-mm-mm Do you read my interviews? Or do you skip my avenue? (My avenue) When you (when you) said you were passing through Was I even on your way? I knew when I asked you to (when I asked you to) Be cool about what I was telling you You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do (what you said you'd do) And I'd end up more afraid Don't say it isn't fair You clearly weren't aware that you made me miserable So, if you really wanna know When I'm away from you (when I'm away from you) I'm happier than ever (happier than ever) Wish I could explain it better (wish I could explain it better) I wish it wasn't true (wish it wasn't true), mm-mm You call me again, drunk in your Benz Driving home under the influence You scared me to death, but I'm wasting my breath 'Cause you only listen to your fucking friends I don't relate to you I don't relate to you, no 'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty You made me hate this city And I don't talk shit about you on the internet Never told anyone anything bad
